Spherical-Separators-Low-Pressure-Mechanical-Controls

Two-Phase Spherical Separators operate on the principle of gravity separation. When a gas-liquid mixture enters the vessel, the heavier liquid phase settles to the bottom, while the lighter gas phase rises to the top. The unique spherical shape of the vessel promotes efficient separation...

Two phase Vertical Separator

Depending on the specific application and the vapor-liquid mixture being separated, two-phase vessels can be oriented vertically or horizontally. In their simplest form, they are an empty tank that are used to reduce the velocity of a fluid on entry, thus allowing the liquid...

Schematic of two-phase horizontal separator

A horizontal separator is a cylindrical vessel that is oriented horizontally. When a gas-liquid mixture enters the separator, the heavier liquid phase settles to the bottom of the vessel, while the lighter gas phase rises to the top. Horizontal separators are a common type...

U-Tube Heat Exchanger

In a U-tube heat exchanger, the tubes are bent into a U-shape, with both ends of each tube connected to the same tube sheet. This design allows for thermal expansion and contraction, reducing the risk of tube failures. One fluid flows through the tubes,...

Welding is a critical aspect of B31.1 piping design and construction. The ASME® B31.1 Code provides specific requirements for welding procedures to ensure the quality and integrity of piping systems.

Vertical Three-Phase Separators with Downcomer and Spreader

A three-phase separator is a crucial piece of equipment in the oil and gas industry, designed to separate a mixture of oil, gas, and water into its individual components. The vertical three-phase separator, equipped with a downcomer and spreader, is a particularly efficient design...

Magnetic Separators

Magnetic separators utilize magnetic forces to separate magnetic materials from non-magnetic materials. They are widely used in various industries, including mining, recycling, and food processing. Magnetic separators are a valuable tool for separating materials based on their magnetic properties. By understanding the principles of...

Horizontal Three-Phase Separator With Overflow Weir

In a horizontal three-phase separator with an overflow weir, fluid enters the vessel through an inlet and immediately hits an inlet diverter. The sudden impact and change of direction helps to release the gas by breaking the surface tension of the liquid.

UM-Stamped Pressure Vessels

A UM-Stamp is a certification mark issued by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors (NBBPVI). It authorizes a manufacturer to repair and alter existing pressure vessels and boilers. This certification ensures that repairs and alterations are performed in accordance with the...
