Industry Highlight: EVT's Voraxial O/W Separator
Enviro Voraxial Technology's (EVT's) voraxial separator is a continuous-flow machine that produces a high centrifugal force to separate liquid mixtures, or a combination of liquids and solids, by their specific gravity. It is very compact and energy requirements, compared to centrifugal devices, are low. Data are available in oilfield applications. An extended article about the Voraxial separator appears in World Oil's December issue.

DOE Highlight: EIA's Annual Energy Outlook 2006 (Early Release) 
The Annual Energy Outlook presents a midterm forecast and analysis of US energy supply, demand, and prices through 2030.
