Abstract
This report reviews the state-of-the-art for oil/water separating devices and processes. Devices and process are classified according to the primary mechanism that induces separation of oil/water mixtures. The basic concepts, specific design features, operational conditions, and limitations of each category are discussed. Literature on test evaluation of a variety of devices is critiqued on the basis of actual or potential success in treating various oil/water system states. No single technique can separate all oil/water system states efficiently. Specific deficiencies in existing technology have been identified.
