Abstract: An oil-water separator includes a vessel having an inlet for the oil and water mixture. A vertical conduit positioned in the vessel has an inlet near the bottom of the vessel. A horizontal conduit is sealingly coupled between the vertical conduit and a first opening in the vessel wall at a level above the inlet to the vertical conduit. The first opening defines a water outlet. A second opening in a wall of the vessel above the level of the first opening defines an oil outlet. The inlet for the oil and water mixture can include a diffuser to prevent turbulence caused by air and high velocity liquid flow.
