ABSTRACT:
A gravity separator for separating oil and water. The separator comprises a separating tank, a discharge tank and apertures for oil and water provided at different levels relative to a base plane. Each of the apertures are provided with conduits that extend in the direction of the other apertures, and parallel to the base plane. Separation of the oil and water from a mixture of oil and water takes place even if the separator is tilted. The separator can be used on board ships, and can be used for clearing oil spills in rough seas.
