What do Foams (gas-liquid suspensions) and Emulsions (liquid-liquid suspensions) have in common?  1. Both consist of deformable continuous and discontinuous phases.  2. Both are governed by interface physics and chemistry.  3. Both create costly process problems.  4. Phase segregation of both is being studied by scientists at D-Foam, Inc. We are pleased to announce the final developmental stages of our newest technology:
		PhaseOut
	Natural, passive phase separators like settling ponds let nature do the work.  Random, droplet impact and coalescence, followed by passive density related separation is cheap.  The major problem with letting nature do the work is time.  Natural occurrences are seldom timely.  Coalescence with barriers reduces separation time by forcing droplet coalescence.  Barriers prematurely plug and need to be replaced, thereby increasing costs.   Amplifying phase density differences with uniform circular motion (centrifugation) introduces process limiting shear stress. D-Foam has found nature's short cut.  There is a way to naturally accelerate droplet coalescence which, in turn, accelerates the phase separation without plugging barriers or introducing inordinate stress due to shear.  The result is a phase separation method that can be as fast as the active coaleser/separators without the related costs.
