ABSTRACT:
A separating device for separating substances from a liquid to be purified includes a tank having opposing end walls spaced from each other and a separator, comprising two parallel inclined plates spaced from each other, in the tank. The separating device also includes an inlet in one end wall of the tank for the liquid to be purified, a first outlet in the other end wall of the tank for the purified liquid, and an overflow between the first outlet and the separator. The one end wall of the tank and the one of the two parallel plates closest to the one end wall are spaced throughout their extent from each other and define a space therebetween to substantially eliminate turbulence of the liquid to be purified before entering the separator. The separating device also includes a second outlet from said space for substances to be separated that are lighter than the purified liquid. The second outlet is in the upper end of the one end wall of the tank above the inlet.
