Abstract
Slurries containing solid liquids and gases are continuously separated into individual components utilizing a revolving vanes on an eccentric axis. The vanes are of a flexible material which revolve sufficiently slowly that in sequence gas escapes through an overhead mesh, water is separated through a lower mesh and solids exit through a lower opening. The slurry input is from the axis plane overhead of the axis and input rate is balanced with gas, water and solids output.
