The present invention provides a fluid inlet device (1) for a separator, comprising a lower part (2) and an upper part (3), wherein the lower part (2) comprises an inner wall surface (4) having a horizontal cross-section comprising a circular arc, a top section (5) comprising a fluid outlet (6), a bottom section (7) comprising a liquid outlet (8), and a tangential fluid inlet (9) for introduction of a fluid flow to the inner wall surface (4); the upper part (3) comprises multiple guiding vanes (10) arranged to guide a fluid flow, entering the upper part through the fluid outlet (6), in a horizontal direction away from the fluid outlet.

The present disclosure provides methods and apparati for separating liquids from production gases and recovering the liquids. The methods and apparati of the present disclosure can reduce or eliminate emissions compared to standard methods and devices and also eliminate the need for haul away of liquids by collecting compressor system liquids in charge vessel(s). The methods and apparati of the present disclosure can also be used to fuel the engines which operate the compressor systems using gas from the compressor drains and the gas used to drain the charge vessel(s).

A swirling flow generation device includes a first pipe having a first pipe axis and through which gas passes, a second pipe having a second pipe axis in a direction different from the first pipe axis and communicates with downstream of the first pipe, and an airflow changing unit provided in the first pipe and having an opening eccentric from the first pipe axis. A swirling flow is formed in the second pipe as the center of the airflow passed through the opening flows into the second pipe at a position that is eccentric from the second pipe axis.

An air cleaner assembly, a main filter element, a safety element, combinations and methods for servicing an air cleaner assembly are provided according to the present invention. The air cleaner assembly includes an air cleaner housing and a main filter element. The air cleaner housing includes a safety liner that supports the main filter element, and can be configured to help reduce the tendency of the main filter element to rotate during use of the air cleaner assembly. A safety element having two open ends, for use with such an assembly is described.

Methods of recirculating clean air in an atmosphere of an enclosure comprise directing an input air stream from the atmosphere of the enclosure through a coiled duct at a rate sufficient to stratify the input air stream within the coiled duct according to a molecular weight of components of the input air stream and to form a heavy fraction stream and a light fraction stream, wherein the heavy fraction stream is relatively enriched in carbon dioxide as compared to the light fraction stream; withdrawing the heavy fraction stream from the coiled duct; and returning the light fraction stream from the coiled duct to the atmosphere of the enclosure.

The present disclosure relates to a gas filtering device that allows to cover and filter gases emanating from liquid and/or solid substances without the use of auxiliary technologies. The gas filtering device comprises an air tight geomembrane that is adapted to cover and seal the surface from which the gas emanations come from, one or more air permeable filtering cartridge pocket(s) embedded within the air tight geomembrane that are adapted to adopt an opened configuration and a closed configuration, and one or more corresponding filtering cartridge(s) that are releasably secured within the air permeable filtering cartridge pocket.

A dust collecting device using multi-cyclone dust filtration includes a dust collecting chamber, cyclone chamber and airflow guiding component. The dust collecting chamber communicates with the cyclone chamber having an intake port for a gas to be filtered, an annular side wall connected to intake port and guiding gas to be filtered to form a first cyclone, an engaging port communicated with dust collecting chamber and allowing first cyclone to enter dust collecting chamber, and an exhaust port. The airflow guiding component within cyclone chamber is provided with a return flow tube receiving the returned gas to be filtered and forming a second cyclone, an airflow guiding bonnet separated from return flow tube, and a dust filtration channel between airflow guiding bonnet and return flow tube. The second cyclone flows toward the exhaust port, and enables dust therein to enter cyclone chamber again, as passing by dust filtration channel.

Disclosed is an apparatus for collecting a by-product in a semiconductor manufacturing process. An objective of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for collecting a by-product such that exhaust gas having great amount of light gas is coagulated while having sufficient residence time in a long flow path, whereby the exhaust gas is collected as a high-density by-product. For this purpose, the apparatus includes: a housing receiving and discharging introduced exhaust gas and configured with a horizontal vortex plate; an upper plate covering an upper portion of the housing; an internal collecting tower provided with a collecting tower cover and a seed eliminating fin to extend a flow path and residence time of the exhaust gas; a heater having a heat conduction plate; and an extended discharging pipe configured to extend the flow path and residence time of the exhaust gas and discharge the exhaust gas.
