PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To isolate suspended particles in a fluid by inertia force and prevent the isolated fine particles from stagnating in the system by using an apparatus with a relatively simple structure and having a high particle removal efficiency. SOLUTION: The method is for accelerating particles floating in a fluid to be separated among suspended particles in fluid and isolating the particles by inertia force. A main stream and a tributary stream arranged in reverse directions at a branched channel. The particle-containing fluid is introduced via a flowing-in channel inclining toward the tributary stream side and a fluid accelerating part. Coarse particles in the particle-containing fluid pass the branched channel by the inertia force and are carried by the main stream through the branched channel and removed and the particulates in the particle-containing fluid turn around at the branched channel owing to the small inertia force and are carried by the tributary stream and discharged.
