A method for electrically resolving a dispersion consisting of immiscible and liquid phases. The dispersion flows along a vertical flow axis between inlet and outlet zones. An electric field for resolving the dispersion is established in a region between inlet and outlet zones through which region passes substantially all of the fluid. The electric field increases monitonically in potential in the direction of dispersion flow and has planes of constant potential transverse to the direction of dispersion flow. The phases resolved from the dispersion in the electric field are recovered from the outlet zone. |
