20110247500 | APPARATUS FOR SEPARATION OF GAS-LIQUID MIXTURES AND PROMOTING COALESCENCE OF LIQUIDS - Provided herein is a conditioning apparatus that includes a geometrical configuration having an inlet flow deceleration conduit and a cyclonic tube to effectuate both liquid-gas separation and droplet coalescence. The apparatus is typically positioned at the inlet of a separator vessel used for removing water and gas from extracted crude oil containing entrained water and gas. The apparatus promotes droplet coalescence and gas separation for mixed fluids flowing into an existing water and oil separation device. | 10-13-2011 |
20120152124 | COMBINED DEGASSING AND FLOTATION TANK - A combined degassing and flotation tank for separation of a water influent containing considerable amounts of oil and gas. A rotational flow is created in the tank which forces the lighter components such as oil and gas droplets towards an inner concentric cylindrical wall where they coalesce and rise to the surface of the liquid and are removed via the outlet. The heavier particles are forced down and sink to the lower part where they can be removed as a sludge. The water is discharged via an outlet in the lower part of the tank. The combined degassing and flotation tank is particular suited for use in oil production at sea for removal of oil and gases from water streams before the water is returned to the sea. | 06-21-2012 |
20120204726 | HIGH-PRESSURE CAPILLARY DEGAS ASSEMBLY - A high-pressure capillary degas assembly includes an assembly block having an eluent inlet and an eluent outlet, and a separator support extending therebetween, a wash inlet and a wash outlet and a groove extending therebetween, a tubular separator extending within the assembly block, the separator having an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface defining an eluent fluid line fluidly interconnecting the eluent inlet and outlet, the outer surface abutting against the separator support and enclosing the groove to define a wash line within the groove. The separator may be configured to retain liquid in the eluent fluid line at a first pressure and allow gas to flow through the separator to the wash fluid line at a second pressure lower than the first pressure. A method of using the high-pressure capillary degas assembly is also disclosed. | 08-16-2012 |
20130239816 | MODIFIED COMPACT OIL-WATER SEPARATION DEVICE AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR USE THEREOF - Disclosed is a compact liquid-liquid separation device useful for the separation of oil and water in hydrocarbon production operations, as well as systems and methods for use thereof. The device includes a separator body of generally vertical pipe having an upper portion and a lower portion, and an inlet to the separator body of generally horizontal pipe in fluid communication with the separator body and attached to the separator body between the upper section and the lower section. The inlet has a round cross-section portion and a reducing area nozzle portion in which the horizontal width of the inlet decreases symmetrically with proximity to the separator body. The vertical interface between the inlet and the separator body has a generally rectangular cross-section. | 09-19-2013 |
20140366739 | HPLC SAMPLE INTRODUCTION WITH BYPASS CHANNEL - A sample dispatcher is disclosed and is configured for individually introducing a plurality of portions of one or more sample fluids into a flow of a mobile phase of a liquid separation system. The liquid separation system is configured for separating compounds of the sample fluids and comprises a mobile phase drive configured for driving the mobile phase through a separation unit configured for separating compounds of the sample fluids in the mobile phase. The sample dispatcher comprises one or more sample reservoirs, each configured for receiving and temporarily storing a respective sample fluid portion or at least a part thereof, and a bypass channel. | 12-18-2014 |
