ABSTRACT:
A system for separating an air-liquid mixture in a low gravity environment is disclosed having a high speed separator to initially process the air-liquid mixture. A second, low-speed separator has its inlet connected to the liquid discharge outlet of the high speed separator in order to remove the entrained air bubbles from the liquid discharge of the high speed separator. The low speed separator has a stationary housing enclosing a rotating, paddle-type separator. The housing defines a liquid collector portion which communicates directly with a liquid discharge outlet. Air removed by the low speed separator may be vented to the ambient atmosphere, or may be returned to the air-liquid mixture inlet of the high speed separator.
