The liquid contaminant enter the gas stream through any one of a variety of events including phase separation and condensation, compressor lube-oils from compression, chemical addition to pipelines (including corrosion inhibitors), and entrainment from overheads of contact towers resulting in aerosol distributions primarily in the nanometer range.
Oil and Gas Separations designs and manufactures high performance separation products and systems for the capture of particulate, liquid, and soluble contaminants from liquid and gas streams. The original Separator technology was developed more than twenty-five years ago to address the inherent deficiencies of conventional gas-liquid separators, proving that it was possible to more effectively remove liquids and aerosols from gas streams. A culture of continued innovation and engineering lead to the development of Zhike element technology inside of the Separator. Zhike made it possible to further increase separator performance,
with efficiencies that could exceed 99.97%. Zhike+ has been developed to further optimize these advanced separation technologies
• Interception of sub-micron aerosols
• Coalescence into larger and larger liquid droplets
• Mass Transfer of the captured liquids out of the gas stream
