Hello Sivakumar,

Oil pollution in ground water can be rather easily treated, but there is a treatment cost.  For potable water, the easiest solution is to use activated carbon to remove the hydrocarbons.  Sri Lanka is a major producer and exported of activated carbon.  So, there should be ample domestic supplies at relatively low cost to treat drinking water.

Agricultural water does not have to be as clean as drinking water.  You can likely get by with simple CPI (Corregated Plate Separator).  These are simple devices that separate the free phase oil from water.  They are readily available on the Internet.  I expect there are numerous fabricators in Sri Lanka that can manufacture suitable equipment.

Cordially,

F. Morris Hoagland, PE
