This manual describes the installation and operation of the Geotech Sipper system.
The Geotech Sipper is a unique solar-powered hydrocarbon recovery system designed for active down well remediation pumps with an attached skimmer. It is specifically engineered for applications where electrical power is unavailable or not economically feasible, generating its own power on-site via solar panels. The system utilizes an internal compressor to create an alternating vacuum and pressure process, allowing for the recovery of various fluids, from viscous to ultra-light Non-Aqueous Phase Liquid (NAPL), from depths up to 180 feet below ground surface.
