A tailings solvent recovery unit (TSRU) includes a separation apparatus receiving solvent diluted tailings and producing solvent component and solvent recovered tailings component. The separation apparatus includes a flash vessel, a tailings outlet, a solvent outlet, and an inlet spray system including multiple nozzles arranged around a periphery of the side walls of the flash vessel sized and configured and extending within the flashing chamber for subjecting the solvent diluted tailings to flash-atomization to form a spray of droplets distributed over the cross-section of the vessel.
