DEVICE TO SEPARATE FLUID FROM MEDIUM FLOW CONTAINING FLUID DROPS Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC B01D45/00 B01D53/26 

FIELD: process engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to device intended for separation of fluid from medium flow. Said medium represents a gas or another fluid with density lower than that of fluid to be separated. Device 1 comprises structures 2 to separate medium 5 from flow containing fluid drops and directed in countercurrent with separated fluid. The latter flows on surfaces of separation structures (2) that make two stages 21, 22, each furnished with medium flow inlet surface 20a arranged under appropriate outlet surface 20b. First stage outlet surface 20a accommodates collector 3 of fluid flowing back from said stage. Second stage outlet surface 22 also accommodates collector 3 of fluid 42 flowing back from second stage 22. Every collector 3 is communicated via collection channel 32 with manifold 4. Collector 3 consists of multiple components 31. The latter represent parallel composite flutes with flow passages for direct passage of medium flow into separation structure.

EFFECT: simplified process and design.
