OSTI ID:5550607
Apparatus for selectively removing a layer of light liquid such as oil from a body of water. The apparatus includes a floating hull having two lateral parts and a central part between the lateral parts forming ducts directing a flow of water and light liquid to separator means in the hull. Means are provided on the central part for creating vortices in the water flowing into the ducts which diminish the divergence of the flow at the water surfaces.
