摘要： A multi-directional flow gravity separator for separating a mixture of two immiscible fluids with different densities includes an elongated generally vertical tank, in which the mixture flows in a generally downward direction, and an effluent discharge tube through which the clarified effluent flows upward and out the tank. Alternatively, the separator includes an elongated vessel, or shroud, within the tank, through which the mixture flows in a generally upward direction before flowing downwardly in the tank; the clarified effluent is discharged from about the bottom of the tank. Alternatively, a separator includes both the elongated vessel and an effluent discharge tube. Alternatively, the vessel of a separator includes a coalescer; preferably, the coalescer results in an increased length of the fluid flow path through the vessel; most preferably, the coalescer is a helical spiraled vane, which results in a helical fluid flow path. In all embodiments, the lighter fluid is collected and discharged from the upper portion of the separator. In another aspect, a bi-directional flow coalescing device includes an elongated vessel and a coalescer, where the mixture is introduced near the bottom of the vessel and flows generally in an upward direction through the coalescer; most preferably, the coalescer is a helical spiraled vane, which results in a helical fluid flow path.

摘要翻译： 用于分离不同密度的两种不混溶流体的混合物的多向流重力分离器包括一个细长的大致垂直的罐，其中混合物沿其大致向下的方向流动，以及一个流出物排出管，澄清的流出物通过该排出管向上和向外流出 坦克。 或者，分离器包括在罐内的细长的容器或护罩，混合物通过其流动在大致向上的方向上，然后在罐中向下流动。 澄清的污水从罐的底部排出。 或者，分离器包括细长容器和流出物排放管。 或者，分离器的容器包括聚结器; 优选地，聚结器导致通过容器的流体流动路径的长度增加; 最优选地，聚结器是螺旋形的螺旋叶片，其导致螺旋流体流动路径。 在所有实施例中，较轻的流体被收集并从分离器的上部排出。 在另一方面，双向流动聚结装置包括细长容器和聚结器，其中混合物在容器的底部附近引入并且通常沿向上的方向流过聚结器; 最优选地，聚结器是螺旋形的螺旋叶片，其导致螺旋流体流动路径。

摘要： The present invention provides a method for removing an oil contaminant from a surface of an aqueous solution, comprising manually controlling a surface skimmer from a remote location to remove a layer or a batch of an oil contaminant from an oil-aqueous solution mixture by the skimmer, where the aqueous solution is contaminated by the oil as a result of an industrial process. The present invention also provides a system for carrying out the method, which comprises a surface skimmer, a collection means which is preferably a separator, a conduit connecting the skimmer to the collection means in an airtight fashion, and means for creating negative pressure in the skimmer, where the skimmer is capable of manual control from a remote location; in further embodiments, the system further comprises an air filtering means.
