Provided are techniques that include operating a spiral contactor. The techniques include receiving, by a spiral contactor, a first fluid, and receiving a second fluid, wherein the first fluid is different than the second fluid. The techniques also include exchanging the first fluid and the second fluid using the spiral contactor, and outputting a deoxygenated fluid from the spiral contactor, wherein the deoxygenated fluid has a lower oxygen concentration than the first fluid.

A system may include an output manifold that may be in fluid communication with a reservoir and that may include multiple discharge ports. Each of the discharge ports may be configured to discharge electrorheological fluid into a housing. A recovery manifold may be in fluid communication with the reservoir and include multiple recovery ports. Each of the recovery ports may be configured to receive the electrorheological fluid from a housing. A gas remover may be positioned to extract gas from the electrorheological fluid received from the recovery ports. A housing may be connected to the system, and electrorheological fluid from the system may be pumped through the housing and the gas remover.

A centrifugal separator for separating gas and liquid from a gas-liquid mixture, the centrifugal separator comprising: a housing having a cavity and a gas-liquid mixture inlet leading tangentially into the cavity along an inlet path to form a vortex therein, a separated gas outlet and a separated liquid outlet; and a rotor rotatably mounted to the housing inside the cavity in a manner to be freely rotatable around a rotation axis, the rotor having a hub extending axially along said axis, the rotor having a plurality of vanes extending radially from the hub inside the cavity, the vanes being disposed in the inlet path in a manner so that the rotor is rotated by the gas-liquid mixture during use.

The present invention relates to a gas/liquid separator. According to an aspect of the present invention, provided is a gas/liquid separator, including a housing including a first supply part and a second supply part; a rotary shaft rotatably provided to the housing; a drive unit configured to rotate the rotary shaft; fixed cones disposed in an interior of the housing and each including a tilted area, diameters of which are decreased in a direction from the first supply part to the second supply part, a first through-hole, which passes the rotary shaft, and at least one second through-hole, through which a second fluid introduced via the second supply part passes; and rotary cones disposed in an interior of the housing so as to be spaced apart from the fixed cones and installed at the rotary shaft so as to rotate about the rotary shaft.

A rotary separator includes a drum configured to rotate, and a pickup member extending into the drum. The pickup member includes a pickup channel having a first inlet for receiving a liquid, and a pitot channel having a second inlet for receiving the liquid. The liquid exits the drum through the pickup channel in response to a pressure of the liquid being measured through the pitot channel. A valve may be coupled to the pickup channel. A pressure sensor may be coupled to the pitot channel.

A dispersing device includes: a casing having a liquid inlet; a rotating body accommodated in the casing and pivotably attached to a rotating shaft from one end of the rotating body; a liquid channel having, on the other end of the rotating body, a passage through which the liquid from the liquid inlet passes, and , inside the rotating body, a segment extended radially around the rotating shaft toward an outer side perpendicular to the rotating shaft and from the other end of the rotating body toward the one end of the rotating body in a direction of the rotating shaft axis and in which a cross section shape perpendicular to the rotating shaft is annular; and one connecting hole in the rotating body connecting the liquid channel with the exterior of the rotating body downstream of the liquid channel.

A dual phase separator system that receives waste material from an oil well and removes gas, oil or the like from the other waste materials. The system has two separators, one that feeds into another. One of the separators having an auger screw to facilitate the separation of the waste material.

An apparatus for filtration has a feed of sludge, containing liquid, solids and gases fed into a tank, the tank containing at least one spinning separation filter comprising a filter cone set having a filter screen, and a barrier cone, arranged roughly in parallel, and defining a conical workspace between them, the conical workspace having a peripheral opening to the tank and a central opening communicating with the interiors of one or more hollow shafts supporting the barrier cone and the filter cone, the upper shaft supporting the barrier cone having an upper axial channel for the exit of gases, the lower shaft supporting the center of the filter cone having a lower axial channel for the exit of liquid or oil, motor means for producing rotation in said at least one spinning separation filter, and a filtrate liquid reservoir located underneath the filter cone for capturing the filtrate passing through the filter screen.

A rotary separator may comprise a drum configured to rotate, a pickup member extending into the drum, comprising a pickup channel having a first inlet for receiving a liquid, and a pitot channel having a second inlet for receiving the liquid. The liquid exits the drum through the pickup channel in response to a pressure of the liquid being measured through the pitot channel. A valve may be coupled to the pickup channel. A pressure sensor may be coupled to the pitot channel.
