A method and a device for clarifying liquid by separating particles from a mixture of particles and liquid. The clarifying device includes a housing having an inlet port, a first outlet port and a second outlet port. The housing defines a settling chamber. A first wall member is located within the housing and defines an inlet chamber therein. The inlet port is in fluid communication with the inlet chamber. An adjustable inlet flow passage is formed by the first wall member and includes an opening which is selectively variable in size. The inlet flow passage provides fluid communication between the inlet chamber and the settling chamber. A plurality of settling members are located within the housing above the settling chamber. The liquid within the settling chamber is rotated about a generally horizontal axis by the orientation of the flow passage and deflector members within the housing. Liquid from the settling chamber enters the settling members by changing the direction of its flow by approximately 120 DEG . Clarified liquid which leaves the settling members flows into an outlet chamber and is removed through the first outlet port. The separated particles settle to the base of the clarifying device where the settled particles are removed through the second outlet port.
