Abstract
This paper presents the construction and functioning of a rotating drum sep arator which is equipped with permanent magnets used for separating aqueous emulsion from organic liquid based magnetic fluids. The distribution of th e magnetic field is described, as well as the influence of the rotor speed, the emulsion flow rate and its concentration upon the collection/separatio n capacity of the magnetic phase.
