analyze the effect of the density of both liquids to the vertical height of the liquid B The use of a continuous atmospheric gravity separator which is also known as decanter is widelyapplied in separating immiscible liquids that are having distinct densities. Figure 1 shows adecenter that separates two immiscible liquids (Liquid A and B) in which liquid B having higherdensity than liquid A. The feed mixture enters the unit at one end of the separating vessel andflows slowly to the other end which eventually cause the mixture to separate itself into two distinctlayers. Liquid A and B flow out at the overflow lines to the respective collection tank which areopen to atmosphere. For a properly designed decanter and assuming that the frictional resistanceto the flow of the liquid is essentially negligible, analyze the e ffe ct of the density of both liquids tothe vertical height of the liquid B (hB1 & he2).
