ABSTRACT:
The apparatus disclosed here is a separator that is adapted for use in connection with aircraft waste tank systems. The apparatus separates air from entrained solid and liquid waste. It has a canister body that is mounted to the top of a waste tank, and a bowl enclosure received within the canister body, the latter providing a filtering chamber. The canister body's inner walls define a cylindrical space around the bowl enclosure. Projecting a certain distance upwardly into such space is an intermediate wall that divides it into outer and inner passageways. A plurality of inlets positioned around the base of the canister body lead into the outer passageway. After entering the inlets, air with entrained waste first travels upwardly through the outer passageway, bends around the upper end of the intermediate wall, and travels downwardly through the inner passageway into an area that is immediately below the bowl enclosure. The bowl enclosure has a bottom inlet that permits the air to thereafter pass upwardly through its filtering chamber.
