Solid separators
Introduction
An API oil separator is a device designed to separate large quantities of suspended oil and suspended solids from wastewater effluents from oil refineries, petrochemical plants, chemical plants, natural gas processing plants, and other industries derived from the above. The name derives from the fact that these separators were designed according to standards published by the American Petroleum Institute (API).[1][2].
