Abstract

A continuous flow oil water separator includes a vessel having a bottom and an upstanding wall that defines a liquid retaining interior. The vessel is positioned in a substantially horizontal orientation with an inlet at a first end and an outlet at a second end. At least one baffle is providing extending upwardly from the bottom to divid e the interior of the vessel into compartments. An opening is provided through each baffle defining a spill--over weir between the compartments. A baffle guard provides a barrier to lateral flow through the opening in each baffle. Each baffle guard extending outwardly from the baffle and downwardly toward the bottom of the vessel to define a spill-over weir acces s channel having a channel inlet positioned toward the bottom of the vessel.

Claims (18)

1. A continuous flow oil water separator, comprising:
a vessel having a bottom and an upstanding wall that defines a liquid retaining interior, the vessel being in a substantially horizontal orientation with an inlet at a first end and an outlet at a second end;
a least one baffle extending upwardly from the bottom to divide the interior of the vessel into compartments;
an opening through each baffle defining a spill-over weir between the compartments;
a baffle guard providing a barrier to lateral flow through the opening in each baffle, each baffle guard extending downwardly toward the bottom of the vessel to define a spill-over weir access channel having a channel inlet positioned toward the bottom of the vessel.
2. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 1, wherein there is more than one baffle.
3. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 2, wherein the opening that defines the spill-over weir between successive baffles is out of alignment, forcing liquid to follow a non-linear path from the inlet to the outlet.
4. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 1, wherein the inlet at the first end is higher than the opening in each baffle defining the spill-over weir, and the opening in each baffle is higher than the outlet at the second end to create a gravity induced flow from the inlet, over the spill-over weir to the outlet.
5. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 4, wherein the opening that defines the spill-over weir in each successive baffle becomes progressively lower from the first end to the second end, creating a gravity induced flow between compartments.
6. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 1, wherein a tray with a retention lip underlies the inlet, liquid entering the vessel having to pass onto the tray and spill over the retention lip.
7. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 6, wherein an oil diversion outlet is provided to skim oil floating on a surface of liquid in the tray.
8. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 1, wherein plugs are positioned in each compartment either in the bottom or in the wall adjacent to the bottom to facilitate flushing of each compartment during maintenance.
9. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 1, wherein the vessel has a removable lid to provide access during maintenance.
10. A continuous flow oil water separator, comprising:
a vessel having a bottom and an upstanding wall that defines a liquid retaining interior, the vessel being in a substantially horizontal orientation with an inlet at a first end and an outlet at a second end, the inlet at the first end being higher than the outlet at the second end to promote a gravity induced flow from the inlet to the outlet;
more than one baffle extending upwardly from the bottom to divide the interior of the vessel into compartments;
an opening through each baffle defining a spill-over weir between the compartments, the opening through each baffle that defines the spill-over weir in each successive baffle becomes progressively lower from the first end to the second end, with the last spill-over weir being higher than the oulet to promote a gravity induced flow between compartments.
a baffle guard providing a barrier to lateral flow through the opening in each baffle, each baffle guard extending outwardly from the baffle and downwardly toward the bottom of the vessel to define a spill-over weir access channel having a channel inlet positioned toward the bottom of the vessel.
11. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 10, wherein the opening that defines the spill-over weir between successive baffles is out of alignment, forcing liquid to follow a non-linear path from the inlet to the outlet.
12. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 10, wherein a tray with a retention lip underlies the inlet, liquid entering the vessel having to pass onto the tray and spill over the retention lip.
13. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 12, wherein an oil diversion outlet is provided to skim oil floating on a surface of liquid in the tray.
14. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 10, wherein plugs are positioned in each compartment either in the bottom or in the wall adjacent to the bottom to facilitate flushing of each compartment during maintenance.
15. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 10, wherein the vessel has a removable lid.
16. A continuous flow oil water separator, comprising:
a vessel having a bottom and an upstanding wall that defines a liquid retaining interior, the vessel being in a substantially horizontal orientation with an inlet at a first end and an outlet at a second end, the inlet at the first end being higher than the outlet at the second end to promote a gravity induced flow from the inlet to the outlet;
a tray with a retention lip underlies the inlet, liquid entering the vessel having to pass onto the tray and spill over the retention lip, an oil diversion outlet being provided to skim oil floating on a surface of liquid in the tray from the vessel;
more than one baffle extending upwardly from the bottom to divide the interior of the vessel into compartments;
an opening through each baffle defining a spill-over weir between the compartments, the opening through each baffle that defines the spill-over weir in each successive baffle becomes progressively lower from the first end to the second end, with the last spill-over weir being higher than the oulet to promote a gravity induced flow between compartments, each opening that defines the spill-over weir between successive baffles is out of alignment, forcing liquid to follow a non-linear path from the inlet to the outlet;.
a baffle guard providing a barrier to lateral flow through the opening in each baffle, each baffle guard extending outwardly from the baffle and downwardly toward the bottom of the vessel to define a spill-over weir access channel having a channel inlet positioned toward the bottom of the vessel.
17. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 16, wherein plugs are positioned in each compartment either in the bottom or in the wall adjacent to the bottom to facilitate flushing of each compartment during maintenance.
18. The continuous flow oil water separator of Claim 16, wherein the vessel has a removable lid for maintenance access.
