Abstract

Systems and a method for oil-in-water are provided. A water-oil separation plant (WOSEP) includes a gravity separation vessel, an inlet for an oil-in-water emulsion, an oil outlet for separated oil, a water compartment in the gravity separation vessel, and a water outlet from water compartment for separated water. A tube of hydrophobic mesh with an axis perpendicular to the water surface is disposed in the water compartment, wherein the top of the tube is above the water surface, and the bottom of the tube is below the water surface. An outlet coupled to the bottom of the tube allows oil and water to drain from the tube.
