This post was last edited by cjzhou2 on 2010-6-2 08:04. Can “skimmed oil vessel” be translated as an oil separator?

Remove oil reservoir? Translate according to the original text; the key is to determine whether the function of the vessel here is storage or the ability to separate skimmed oil.

I’ve seen it translated as an oil separation tank; as echomnm said, an oil skimming tank should work too

Skim oil is sometimes translated as ‘oil removed by skimming’, referring to the process of separating the oil layer from oily wastewater using physical methods; skimed oil is likely the oil that has been removed in this way, and it is presumed that ‘skimed oil vessel’ refers to a tank used for storing such oily waste. The context is needed to translate accurately.

The Suction Separator is translated as an oil-water separator; is the use of the word \"Suction\" appropriate?

The principles behind separating oil and water using suction and skimming seem different at first glance. Suction makes use of negative pressure, while skim uses mechanical methods
