2. API oil–water separator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API_oil–water_separator

   An API oil–water separator is a device designed to separate gross amounts of oil and suspended solids from industrial wastewater produced at oil refineries, petrochemical plants, chemical plants, natural gas processing plants and other industrial oily water sources.

3. Oil–water separator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil–water_separator

   Downhole oil–water separation (DOWS) technology is an emerging technology that separates oil and gas from produced water at the bottom of the well, and re-injects most of the produced water into another formation which is usually deeper than the producing formation, while the oil and gas rich stream is pumped to the surface.

4. Centrifugal extractor - Wikipedia

   Multistage centrifugal extractor cross section drawing The feed solution initially containing one or more solutes (heavy phase on the cross section drawing Fig 3.), and an immiscible solvent having a different density (light phase on cross section sketches) flow counter-currently through the extractor’s rotor, designed with a stack of ...

5. Separator (oil production) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separator_(oil_production)

   A heated-water bath is probably the most effective method of removing foam bubbles from foaming crude oil. A heated-water bath is not practical in most oil and gas separators, but heat can be added to the oil by direct or indirect fired heaters and/or heat exchangers, or heated free-water knockouts or emulsion treaters can be used to obtain a ...

6. Centrifugal water–oil separator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_water–oil...

   In a centrifugal oil and water separator, the force of gravity is one-thousand [citation needed] times greater that of the coalescing plate pack separator or the petrol interceptor, so the separation is much greater. Not only is the force of separation greater, but there are fewer working parts so maintenance is much easier and cheaper.

7. Downhole oil–water separation technology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downhole_oil–water...

   An oil producing well is usually completed to pump all produced fluids to the surface where the fluids will be separated into their constituent components. In the early life of most oil producing wells, more petroleum will usually be produced than produced water. The produced water is considered to be wastewater that will need to be treated.

8. Separation process - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_process

   Oil-water separation, gravimetrically separates suspended oil droplets from waste water in oil refineries, petrochemical and chemical plants, natural gas processing plants and similar industries; Precipitation; Recrystallization; Scrubbing, separation of particulates (solids) or gases from a gas stream using liquid.

9. Oily water separator (marine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oily_water_separator_(marine)

   An oily water separator (OWS) (marine) is a piece of equipment specific to the shipping or marine industry. It is used to separate oil and water mixtures into their separate components. This page refers exclusively to oily water separators aboard marine vessels.
