Vertical Three-Phase Separator with Interface Control

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 interface control, is a particularly efficient design for maintaining optimal separation efficiency and preventing liquid carryover.

Horizontal Three-Phase Separator with Oil Bucket and Water Weir

In a horizontal three-phase separator with an oil bucket and water weir, the vessel does not require an active interface controller. As the oil separates on top of the water it spills over the weir plate and into the oil bucket. The oil level in the bucket is controlled by a level controller sending a signal to the oil dump valve.

Conditions Affecting the Design and Operation of Gas Dehydrators

The temperature of the glycol entering the contactor has a significant effect on the gas dew point depression and should be held to within 10oF above the inlet gas temperature. Higher glycol losses and higher outlet gas dew points occur when the lean glycol enters the contactor at a temperature more than 100F above the gas temperature
