NOVELTY - The phase separation apparatus comprises an outer container having a open frusto-conical bottom and an open top, an inner container concentric with and contained within the outer container and having an open bottom communicating with the outer container's bottom, a unit for continuously transferring liquid manure into the inner container, a unit for adding a flocculant material into the inner container, a unit for stirring the flocculant material in the liquid manure contained in the inner container, a unit for conditioning the liquid manure to enhance phase separation.    USE - The apparatus is useful for phase separation of liquids and solid manure components from liquid manure for converting manure to fertilizer.    ADVANTAGE - The apparatus ensures rapid, efficient, scalable, clear and continuous phase separation of liquids and solid manure components from liquid manure in an economically viable and environmental friendly manner thus producing stable custom fertilizer without the need to add chemicals, allows for continuous operation with minimal interruption for removal of accumulated sludge in the settling tank, and provides stabilization of process conditions by thermally coupling the preconditioning and settling tanks and better energy use by thermally coupling preconditioning and settling tanks and isolating phase separation system from ambient conditions.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The phase separation apparatus comprises an outer container having a open frusto-conical bottom and an open top, an inner container concentric with and contained within the outer container and having an open bottom communicating with the outer container's bottom, a unit for continuously transferring liquid manure into the inner container, a unit for adding a flocculant material into the inner container, a unit for stirring the flocculant material in the liquid manure contained in the inner container, a unit for conditioning the liquid manure to enhance phase separation of liquids and solid manure components from the liquid manure, settling of the separated solid manure components through the inner container's bottom into the outer container's bottom and accumulating of the separated liquids in the space, a unit for extracting the settled solid manure components from the outer container's bottom, and a unit for extracting the separated liquids from the space's top. A space is formed between the outer container's inner side walls and the inner container's outer side walls. The unit for extracting the separated liquids comprises a circular floating weir trough arrangement. The weir trough arrangement comprises several entrance ports and a manifold or single path to an exit pipe. The conditioning unit comprises surfactants or foam controlling materials, a unit for cooling the inner container, a unit for heating the inner container, a unit for sealing the inner container, and units for drawing vacuum on the inner container's top and for overpressurizing the inner container. A unit is arranged for thermally insulating the outer container's outer surface. The inner container's volume and the outer container's volume are selected to optimize the settling of the solid manure components, extracting of settled solid manure components and extracting of the separated liquids, while allowing for continuous transferring of the liquid manure into the inner container. The inner and outer containers comprise cylindrical, hexagonal, rectangular, spherical, semispherical, vertical or horizontal geometries. INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for:    (1) a system for processing liquid manure; and    (2) a method for processing liquid manure.
