Device and method for degassing liquids

Devices for the removal of gases and/or volatilizable contaminants from liquids are described. In one example device, a liquid fluid containing dissolved gases and/or volatilizable contaminants are passed through at least one local constriction in a flow-through chamber at a sufficient pressure and flow rate to create cavitation bubbles in the liquid flow. The dissolved gases and/or volatilizable contaminants migrate into the cavitation bubbles. The velocity of the liquid flow is then reduced, which allows for the cavitation bubbles in the liquid flow to coalesce. The velocity of the liquid flow can then be reduced further, resulting in additional coalescing of the cavitation bubbles. The cavitation bubbles that contain the gases and/or volatilizable contaminants can then be separated from the liquid flow. The separation generally leaves a liquid flow product that may have a concentration of one or more gases or volatilizable contaminants lower than the starting liquid flow.

Cavitation container

A pressurised container 10 contains oil and a dissolved gas, at a constant pressure above atmospheric pressure. A cavitation means, such as a rotor 11, or perforated plate (21,fig.2), introduces a local area of reduced pressure within the oil to encourage the dissolved gas to evolve from the oil. This enables gas to be evolved from the oil without needing to reduce the pressure of the entire volume of oil which the gas is to be evolved from. The evolved gas and remaining oil occupy a greater volume than did the gas containing oil and consequently the pressure in the vessel will increase. This allows the gas to be drawn off while the overall pressure of the container 10 is maintained.

A method for shutting down a helical separation system from normal operation on a multiphase fluid stream comprising heavier and lighter fluid components

Whilst the multiphase fluid stream is being fed to the system under normal operation, a further fluid stream consisting essentially of the heavier fluid component is introduced into the multiphase stream over time to replace it. When the fluid stream consists of the further stream, the flow rate is reduced to zero. The system is subsequently left full of the further fluid. In normal operation, the multiphase fluid stream flows along a helical flowpath 108 surrounding a central conduit 102 at such a velocity to cause the lighter component to move to an inner region such that it is collected in the central conduit. The method and system are particular suitable for the separation of oil droplets from water, especially from water for reinjection into a subterranean formation as part of an oil and gas production operation. The method and system are conveniently applied on a modular basis.

Method and apparatus for helical separation of a multiphase fluid stream comprising a heavier fluid component and a lighter fluid component

The multiphase fluid stream is caused to flow along a first helical flowpath 108, the first helical flowpath having a first pitch, the first helical flowpath being sufficiently long to establish a stabilised rotating fluid flow pattern for the stream, and then is directed to flow along a second helical flowpath 112, the second helical flowpath having a second pitch, wherein the second pitch is greater than the first pitch; the lighter fluid component is then removed from a radially inner region of the second helical flowpath, e.g. by a cylindrical conduit 102.

DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DEGASSING LIQUIDS

Devices for the removal of gases and/or volatilizable contaminants from liquids are described. In one example device, a liquid fluid containing dissolved gases and/or volatilizable contaminants are passed through at least one local constriction in a flow- through chamber at a sufficient pressure and flow rate to create cavitation bubbles in the liquid flow. The dissolved gases and/or volatilizable contaminants migrate into the cavitation bubbles. The velocity of the liquid flow is then reduced, which allows for the cavitation bubbles in the liquid flow to coalesce. The velocity of the liquid flow can then be reduced further, resulting in additional coalescing of the cavitation bubbles. The cavitation bubbles that contain the gases and/or volatilizable contaminants can then be separated from the liquid flow. The separation generally leaves a liquid flow product that may have a concentration of one or more gases or volatilizable contaminants lower than the starting liquid flow.

Rotodynamic degassing pumping unit and rotor bearing design

The present invention is concerned with degassing processes, and more specifically with a degassing apparatus and method for removing hydrogen sulfide and hydrogen polysulfides from liquid sulfur in a rapid and efficient manner to result in low residual hydrogen sulfide and hydrogen polysulfide levels. Utilizing a rotodynamic degassing pumping unit, a first fluid, typically in the liquid phase, is pumped or drawn under pressure or vacuum, while a second fluid, typically in a gaseous phase, is pumped or drawn under pressure or vacuum into the first fluid, effecting a chemical reaction. A rotary impeller having a plurality of blades is presented at a submerged location in the liquid sulfur surrounded by a draft-tube. The rotor (impeller) is divided into three distinct blade sections: a) a radial flow section; b) a mixed flow section; and c) an axial flow section. An overflow weir controls the depth of the liquid inside the degasser's housing. The overflow weir includes a corrugated type cross-section, comprising segments split longitudinally and welded lengthwise. The "wavy" or sinusoidal cross-sectional shape or trapezoidal or triangular shape (extending radially inwards) increases the length of the weir, which in turn minimizes the head required, and maximizes the capacity. A novel rotor bearing design is introduced as a means to mitigate excessive deflection of the main shaft. The design removes one of the two rotor bearings of the prior art and places two immersed bearings down the shaft.

Method and apparatus for removal of gas bubbles from blood

A system is disclosed for removing gas bubbles from blood during circulatory assist procedures. Such bubbles are generated, along with particulate matter, in an extracorporeal circulatory bypass system by the pump, oxygenator and other components. Filters are used in the line to remove particulates and bubbles from the blood before they are pumped back to the patient but current filters are inefficient at removing small bubbles and debris that can cause neurological defects and renal and other organ failures in the patient. An active filter apparatus and method is disclosed that forces the bubbles to the center of the system where they are removed from the blood before the blood exits the filter. The filter comprises an axially elongate cylindrical shell with a blood inlet, a blood outlet and a gas outlet. A motor driven impeller spins the blood within the shell and forces the gas toward the center by centripetal force, utilizing the buoyancy effects of the bubbles in blood, whereby the bubbles can be bled off at the center of the filter element.
