SYSTEM AND METHOD TO TREAT A MULTIPHASE STREAM

A system and method for enhancing separation of a denser phase liquid from a lighter phase liquid within a multiphase stream. In one example, a cyclonic coalesce has a tubular housing and a plurality of coaxial flow chambers extending in the axial direction of the housing. A swirling element is asso...

Zusammenfassung:A system and method for enhancing separation of a denser phase liquid from a lighter phase liquid within a multiphase stream. In one example, a cyclonic coalesce has a tubular housing and a plurality of coaxial flow chambers extending in the axial direction of the housing. A swirling element is associated with each of the plurality of coaxial flow chambers. The swirling elements are constructed and arranged to impart a tangential velocity of the stream flowing through the associated flow chamber.
