Treater Vessels Sizing

Treater Separator Settling Equations

Posted on September 15, 2009October 30, 2012

The specific gravity difference between the dispersed water droplets and the oil should result in the water “sinking” to the bottom of the treatment vessel.…

Wave Breakers

Posted on August 17, 2009

In long horizontal vessels it is necessary to install wave breakers, which are nothing more than vertical baffles spanning the gas-liquid interface and perpendicular to…

Estimating Pressure Vessels Weights

Posted on September 23, 2009October 29, 2012

It is important to be able to estimate vessel weights, since most cost estimating procedures start with the weight of the vessel. The vessel weight,…

Forming Emulsions Process

Posted on August 23, 2009October 31, 2012

For an emulsion to exist there must be two mutually immiscible liquids, an emulsifying agent, and sufficient agitation to disperse the discontinuous phase into the…

LTX Coil Diameter Sizing

Posted on September 16, 2009October 28, 2012

Erosional flow criteria will almost always govern in choosing the diameter. Sometimes it is necessary to check for pressure drop in the coil. Typically, pressure…

Shell and Tube Exchangers

Heat Exchanger Placement of Fluid

Posted on September 14, 2009

The question always comes up of which fluid to put in the tubes and which fluid to put in the shell. Consider placing a fluid…

Coalescing Media

Posted on September 1, 2009

It is possible to use a coalescing media to promote coalescence of the water droplets. These media provide large surface area upon which water droplets…

Hydrocyclone Separator

Posted on January 6, 2011October 28, 2012

Hydrocyclone separators, sometimes called enhanced gravity separators, use centrifugal force to remove oil droplets from oily water. As shown in Figure 7-16, static hydrocyclone separator…

Potential Operating Problem

Paraffin Problems

Posted on September 2, 2009

Separator operation can be adversely affected by an accumulation of paraffin. Coalescing plates in the liquid section and mesh pad mist extractors in the gas…

Maintain Liquid Seal in Separator

Posted on December 13, 2021

To maintain pressure on a separator, a liquid seal must be effected in the lower portion of the vessel. This liquid seal prevents loss of…
