Reclaim Contaminated Hydraulic Oil with Schroeder Industries Filtration Solutions


Hydraulic and lubricating oils have a finite service life, but these fluids are often disposed of before their usable life is up. While oil recycling and decontamination services exist, they are not as convenient or cost-effective as implementing solutions that address contamination on-site, in real time.

Schroeder Industries offers technology and services that enable proactive contamination control, reduce oil consumption, and cut back on oil-related expenses!



Schroeder Industries Solutions Include:


  • Solid Contamination Removal Filtration
  • Dehydrating & Water-Removal Filtration
  • Mobile Carts & Skids for Wide Range of Fluid Volumes
  • Condition Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools
  • Turnkey Filtration & Contamination Control Management
  • Rental Filtration Units
  • And More!

Oil Reclamation Case Studies



A plastic packaging operations was experiencing high levels of water contamination in their injection molding equipment’s hydraulic reservoir.

The customer was spending tens of thousands of dollars per month on oil recycling costs and new oil purchases.

Schroeder Industries deployed a TDS-A unit to dehydrate their oil, as well as extract any particulate contamination, to ensure operational reliability slash the customer’s oil-related expenses.

16/14/12 ISO Code Reached; Cleaner Than Customer’s ‘New’ Oil

$25-30k USD Saved Per Month on Oil-Related Expenses

220gal of Hydraulic Oil Reclaimed in Just Two Days




Operations at a waste incineration plant were constantly disrupted by constant turbine problems on startup.

A survey of 22 machines revealed the issues were the result of varnish buildup in the control block, caused by usage of incorrect oil in certain machines and an inexpensive, ineffective return line filter element. Varnish is a byproduct of aging oil, and is accelerated by contamination, temperature extremes, and other factors.

Schroeder Industries implemented a VMU (Varnish Mitigation Unit) to continually filter the turbine oil and tackle harmful varnish buildup.


Oil Service Life Increased +3.5 Years

986 Gallons of Oil Saved Per Year

$12.1K Oil Cost Savings Per Year




A manufacturer in the pulp & paper market required additional water removal capacity in their power generation turbine reservoir.

While the operator tried to implement a non-Schroeder dehydration unit, it was unable to keep up with the high volume of water infiltrating the reservoir.

To allow the customer to test the performance of the TDS-E, Schroeder Industries enrolled them in the rental equipment program to prove the unit’s effectiveness.
