Coolant recycling apparatus

Abstract

The disclosure provides a coolant recycling apparatus to separate a coolant from an emulsion or a mixture of tramp oil and coolant. The coolant recycling apparatus comprises a container defined by adjoining one or more plates to form a structurally integral unit, a skimmer positioned atop the container to collect a mixture of a coolant and an oil within the container, an elongated separation baffle connected within the container and extends to a bottom of the container, and a spout connected to the separation baffle to discharge out the separated coolant from the bottom of the container. The coolant and the oil separate within the container based on a difference in the buoyancy of the coolant and the oil. Further, the separation baffle is connected to collect the separated coolant at the bottom of the container.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
