Abstract
The invention relates to apparatus for continuously separating components of mutually different density from a liquid mixture. The apparatus includes a separation space which is divided by a partition wall into a primary separation chamber and a secondary separation chamber. The partition wall guides the flow of liquid in an S-shaped path prior to the liquid passing a lamella separator, a part of the liquid flow from the primary chamber to the secondary chamber being allowed to flow back to the primary chamber through an opening in one wall element.
