Abstract

Abstract In order to effect the separation of two liquids, particularly two liquids in the form of an emulsion, one of the liquids, the dispersed component of the emulsion, is concentrated in the form of an emulsion which is inverted with respect to the initial emulsion, i.e. is an emulsion of the previously dispersing component in the previously dispersed component. Thereafter the inverted emulsion can be separated off from the remainder of the initial mixture. Chemical agents and agitation may be employed to promote the formation of the inverted emulsion. The process is especially applicable to oil-in-water emulsions known as soluble oils.
