Abstract
The invention relates to an apparatus for the separation of contaminants from a pressurized liquid. Specifically, the apparatus is a centrifugal rotor adapted to be reaction driven by the pressurized liquid arranged within a housing. The housing has an outlet that is oriented in a direction substantially opposite the direction of rotation of the rotor to make it easier for the liquid to leave the housing.
