DESCRIPTION The 3-Phase Horizontal Separator is a small-scale unit capable of demonstrating the principles and operation of gravityseparation and the effect of viscosity, flow characteristics and density difference on separation. TheUOP30 comes with two horizontal separator configurations, making the UOP30 a versatile teaching unit. The separation of two immiscible liquids and a gas using density difference is one of the most important process operations in the oil and gas industry. Examples include separation of produced water and condensate from gas and the separation of gas and produced water from crude oil. A combination of refined oil, water and air enters the vessel, the flow is directed to the spherical end of the vessel where primary separation occurs and then flows through the vessel where it meets the coalescer. At the secondary separating section, the fluids are allowed to slow down and separate by gravity. The water, being the heaviest in mass, stays at the bottom while the oil floats on top and the gas occupies the void space in the vessel. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS The 3-Phase Horizontal Separator has been designed in accordance with API 12J and CE requirements. Clear acrylic vessel: 300mm x 900mm Water flow meter range: 0-25 l/min Refined oil flow meter range: 0-25 l/min Airflow meter: 0-10 l/min Feed tanks capacity: 50l Water pump range: 0-15 l/min Refined oil: 0-9 l/min
