Horizontal Separation Demonstrator
Description: The three phase separator demonstration apparatus is a small scale vessel that performs continuous separation of a mixture of oil, air and water. It is available in horizontal and vertical orientations. The primary separation operation for crude oil occurs when the crude stream flows through a vessel of sufficient capacity to allow gravity separation of the gas, liquid hydrocarbon and water phases. This trainer includes a clear horizontal primary separator vessel. The process has manual control valves with rotometers and is intended to demonstrate oilfield separation principles with basic visual / manual operation.
Function: This process trainer blends air, water and refined oil to emulate a crude oil stream. This fluid mixture then flows into a separator vessel fabricated of clear materials. The oil and water are recycled; the air is vented to atmosphere.
