ABSTRACT:
An oil-water mixture is introduced into a horizontal trough which is in a container and has baffles directing flow upwardly toward an opening in the container to a trap on the top of the container. Oil separates from the water as it flows along the baffles and moves by gravity separation up into the trap. An interface sensor in the trap opens an oil outlet from the trap whenever a sufficient quantity of oil accumulates. The water flows down from the upper part of the container through a coalescing filter to a water outlet located in the lower part of the container, being a three-stage separator.
