Hi! Im trying to design a horizontal decanter or separator tank for separation of crude glycerol and free fatty acids but i cant find any reference for the sizing calculations for liquid liquid separators. I also dont know the typical residence time and droplet size for this kind of mixture. Do you have any idea how to design this? I tred using stokes’s law but im getting small results for area and diameter.
