  • Separation system using coalescing techniques
    Patent number: 4643834
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for gravitational separation of discontinuous mixtures using laminar flow coalescing techniques is disclosed. The apparatus includes a number of discrete sets of fluid interrupting surfaces arranged in series one after the other. After analyzing the physical, chemical and statistical characteristics of any given discontinuous mixture, the configuration of the surfaces can be correlated or adjusted to provide enhanced and efficient separation of the components of the mixture.
