ABSTRACT:
Separation of a suspension of two immiscible fluid components is accomplished in a cylindrical pressure vessel divided into a main chamber and, at one axial end, a secondary chamber. A series of sinusoidal plates in the main chamber provides a tortuous passage for fluid to the secondary chamber. The two components tend to separate during such passage, the less dense component collecting in the upper part of the main chamber and the denser component passing to the secondary chamber. The vessel is provided with an inlet to the main chamber, a first outlet from the main chamber for the less dense component and a second outlet for the denser component exiting from the secondary chamber.
