Appropriate process design and selection of internals are absolutely critical for the proper functioning of a separator vessel. The operating conditions are simulated for a variety of separator arrangements to find the best solution.

After initially simulating the operating cases using standard separator design methods, we then carry out a series of incremental designs and drawings upon a range of internals options to evaluate the performance improvements, finally optimising the overall vessel and nozzle sizing to deliver an optimised performance and cost-effective design to match the target performance. The software accurately calculates several separator parameters that help us develop an optimum solution, including

• Full/partial vessel cross-sectional areas
• Full/partial vessel volumes
• Multi- level liquid volumes and residence times
• Mist eliminator sizing estimation
• Sizing and selection of suitable inlet distributor
• Horizontal gas/ liquid separator sizing with nozzle velocities, pressure drops, residence times, etc
• Vertical gas / liquid separator sizing with nozzle velocities, pressure drops, residence time
• Coalescer pack sizing for enhanced liquid – liquid separation

For complex designs or applications requiring specialist internals we also offer design consulting services
