Abstract
A device for separating immiscible fluids of different densities from a liquid-containing emulsion, includes a longitudinal rotary drum having a longitudinal axis of rotation. The drum includes, longitudinally from upstream to downstream and between at least one upstream inlet and downstream outlets: a solid body rotation stage having an inlet and including at least one longitudinal inner partition for causing circumferential solid body rotation; a migration and coalescence stage including at least one longitudinal partition for causing circumferential solid body rotation, the partition delimiting at least one longitudinal channel communicating with the solid body rotation stage; and an extraction stage including at least one liquid outlet that has an overflow edge and extends along a longitudinal flow space communicating with the migration and coalescence stage via at least one longitudinal passage, and including a downstream liquid discharge space communicating with the outlet and connected to a downstream discharge port.
