Abstract
A phase separation apparatus is provided for effecting phase separation of two immiscible liquids. The apparatus comprises an inner rotatable tube the bottom end of which is charged axially with the two liquids, and an outer tube which forms an outer chamber surrounding the inner tube. The inner tube includes a plurality of slots or openings along the length thereof and when the inner tube is rotated the heavier phase liquid will be separated from the lighter phase and will exit through the slots in the inner tube into the outer chamber for collection. The lighter phase is collected at the top of the inner tube.
