Spinifex Performance CurvePerformance.jpg (62334 bytes)

An example of a fully specified oil separator performance curve is shown on the right. Click on the image to see a larger picture. Fluid properties, method of operation and separator design conditions are fully specified in the left hand side of the data sheet.

The blue dotted line shows the single pass oil separation performance. The curve shows that with the conditions specified about 90% of 20 micron sized oil droplets will be removed and approximately 100% of 30 micron oil droplets will be separated.  Even a good percentage of the very difficult to treat 10 micron oil droplets can be removed.

Obviously most oily water mixtures are not made up of a single oil droplet size but a variety or 'distribution' of sizes. For most oily water mixtures research has shown that the distribution is 'log/normal'. The graph in the bottom right corner shows a typical feed distribution (red) and the distribution on the treated water outlet.

How clean does the Spinifex performance curve make the oily water? Visit our Water Quality page to see.
