When the difference in density between the liquids is great enough for the droplets to settle, decanters are used to separate the liquids. The decanter sizing calculator (DSC) is a piece of software designed to size both horizontal and vertical decanters. The software can handle multiple cases and accept input in a variety of measurement units. Additionally, the output can be customized to display the outcomes in various units. Depending on the user's preferences, results can be exported or printed.

1. size horizontal and vertical decanters
2. Adaptable calculation settings that let the user change the design assumptions.
3. Different units for the calculation's input and output
4. Save and load case files
5. List all assumptions that were applied to the calculations.
6. Additionally, the software will use user input to determine dispersed phase and continuous phase.
7. Various calculations are produced,
For vertical vessels; vessel diameter, vessel height, feed interface height, light liquid height, heavy liquid height, feed inlet diameter, dispersion band length, residence time of droplets in dispersion band, velocity and settling velocity for dispersed phase, volumetric flow rates, interface area, entrained droplet diameter
For horizontal vessels; vessel diameter, vessel length, feed interface height, light liquid height, heavy liquid height, feed inlet diameter, dispersion band height, residence time of droplets in dispersion band, velocity and settling velocity for dispersed phase, volumetric flow rates, interface area, interface width, entrained droplet diameter, turbulence level checks for dispersed and continuous phases.
8.Print, export, copy produced results summary
