SKIT/S Series

RWO (Riwoplan Wasseraufbereitung) is a Bremen specialist for marine water treatment, part of the Veolia Group since 2009. The SKIT/S Series is one of the best-selling OWS systems worldwide and the main competitor to Alfa Laval PureBilge. Gravity-based separation with coalescing elements — no rotating parts (except pump), therefore lower maintenance than centrifugal systems. Equally distributed on European and Asian vessels.
