The septum is a partition which divides the heart into left and right. The right side gets all the impure blood from the body and this is pumped out to the lungs where it gets oxygenated or purified. This blood then returns to the left side of the heart and is then pumped out to supply the tissues. The septum therefore separates the deoxygenated blood from the oxygenated blood

It separates the blood in the left ventricle and atrium from the right ventricle and atrium. So it prevents the mixing up of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in the heart.
