2. 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.

3. 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 ...

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. Coalescer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalescer

   In the Oil and Gas, Petrochemical and Oil Refining industries, liquid-gas coalescers are widely used to remove water and hydrocarbon liquids to less than 0.011 mW (plus particulate matter to less than 0.3 μm in size) from natural gas to ensure natural gas quality and protect downstream equipment such as compressors, gas turbines, amine or ...

7. Rotary-screw compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary-screw_compressor

   Refrigerated compressed air dryers with internal cold coalescing filters are rated to remove more oil and water than coalescing filters that are downstream of air dryers, because after the air is cooled and the moisture is removed, the cold air is used to pre-cool the hot entering air, which warms the exiting air. In other applications, this is ...

8. API oil–water separator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API_oil–water_separator

   A typical gravimetric API 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.

9. Decanter centrifuge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decanter_Centrifuge

   With a 3 phase decanter centrifuge, it is possible to separate 3 phases from each other in one process step only. For example, two liquids which cannot be mixed because of different densities (e.g. oil and water) are separated from a solids phase. The heavy liquid (water) collects in the middle between the oil and the solids layer.
