A separator for separating liquid hydrocarbons, solids and fluid from a slurry, such as a drilling fluid used in a drilling operation. The separator has a first separator tank, and a first centrifugal separator fed by the first separator tank that removes at least a portion of the solids from the first separator tank. An agitator foams the liquid hydrocarbons in the first separator tank. One or more settling tanks are connected in series to the first separator tank. Each settling tank has a baffle that extends below a top surface of the slurry between the inlet and the outlet to prevent foamed liquid hydrocarbons in the slurry from passing through the outlet. There is a base fluid that is substantially the same as the fluid in each of the first separator tank and the one or more settling tanks.
