A dedicated fuel-air separator uses helical flow and an atmospheric vent to remove air, preventing engine stalling while dampening pressure pulsations.
A gun barrel tank uses lateral distribution metering troughs to move crude oil fluid uniformly across the separation vessel.
A pneumatic well cavity device displaces liquids using pressurized gas to lift fluids and solids from the wellbore.
Side-stream chilling removes absorption heat to shrink absorber height while maintaining pump reliability.
Capillary plates and baffles in a spacecraft tank extract pure gas by leveraging surface tension, preventing liquid fuel loss during venting operations.
A multiphase pump uses phase separation to supply liquid-enriched components for internal lubrication and cooling.
Dilute caustic injection converts volatile silica into non-vapor hydroxide complexes in a falling film evaporator, reducing contamination below 0.2 ppm.
A separation system using a stripper column and flash drum recovers ethylene from multi-component condensate mixtures.
A water recirculation system diverts feedwater to an economizer, mixing it with exhaust gas to regulate backend temperature.
Vertical degassing pipes in the inlet manifold divert gas bubbles upward via buoyancy, eliminating plug flow and maintaining constant fluid velocity.
Phase separation chamber decompresses pressurized polymer liquid to release volatile components through controlled foam formation and bubble bursting.
