what is princilple of disc oil separator

Marine disc separator works based on the principle of centrifugal force. It separates different components of a liquid mixture with varying densities by spinning the mixture at high speeds. The liquid mixture is introduced into the separator and is rotated by a motor-driven disc stack. The centrifugal force generated by the spinning disc stack separates the liquid mixture into its different components.

The denser components of the mixture, such as water or sediment, are pushed outwards by the centrifugal force and collect at the edges of the disc stack. The lighter components, such as oil or grease, remain near the center of the disc stack and are collected separately. The separated components are then drained off through different outlets.

The separator is designed to operate continuously, and the separated components can be collected and discharged while the separator is still in operation. Marine disc separator is widely used in the marine industry for the separation of water and solids from fuel and lubricating oils, as well as other liquids.
