Treater combination unit
TLDR
In this paper, a treater combination unit is defined, where the functions of a heater treater and one or more of a sales gas heater, instrument gas heater/dryer, two-phase separator, and a free water knockout are included in a single, self-contained and optionally portable unit.Abstract:
A treater combination unit wherein the functions of a heater treater and one or more of a sales gas heater, instrument gas heater/dryer, two-phase separator, and a free water knockout are incorporated into a single unit are included in a single, self-contained and optionally portable unit. In one embodiment, an instrument gas dryer can also optionally be incorporated into the combination unit. In an alternative embodiment, the instrument gas dryer is added to the unit as a retrofit.read more

Compressor inter-stage temperature control
TL;DR: In this article, a method, system and apparatus for providing temperature control of compressed gases between stages of a multiple-stage compressor, by selectively manipulating a valve which can cause at least a portion of the compressed gases to flow through an air-cooled heat exchanger.
Patent
Multi-Stage Separation Using a Single Vessel
TL;DR: In this paper, a system for separating a fluid mixture into gaseous and liquid components using a single vessel that achieves multiple stages of separation is described, where a separator comprises a first inlet configured to receive a stream of the fluid mixture, a first stage separation section configured to separate the stream into a first liquid, a second liquid, and a gas at a first temperature.
Patent
Compressor equipped emissions free dehydrator
TL;DR: An emissions free dehydrator which can be used in conjunction with a compressor that compresses hydrocarbon vapors and gases was proposed in this article, which can capture virtually all hydrocarbon liquids and vapors produced by the process of removing water vapor from a flowing gas stream.
Patent
Produced liquids compressor cooler
TL;DR: In this article, a method, apparatus and system for cooling compressed gases at a well site without the need for fans is presented, where produced liquids act as a continuously-flowing heat sink for gases entering stages of compression.

Induced gas liquid coalescer and flotation separator
John A. Cairo,John A. Young +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a simplified single cell fluid flow apparatus for flotation removal of suspended impurities and liquids is provided, where the method and apparatus are directed to an induced gas liquid coalescer, which provides for a separation vessel which can be fabricated to withstand internal pressure requirements experienced in flotation separation devices where the apparatus induces maximum gas volumes consistent with optimum mass transfer of gas medium to suspended impurity in the liquid while controlling intercell or vessel chamber turbulence.
Patent
Energy efficient apparatus and method for cooling an electronics rack
TL;DR: In this article, an energy efficient, dynamic manner for cooling an electronics rack in an energy-efficient, and dynamic manner is described, which includes one or more extraction mechanisms for facilitating cooling of the electronics rack, an enclosure, a heat removal unit and a control unit.
Patent
Fuel handling system
TL;DR: In this paper, a vapor separator with a perforate baffle between any return and the liquid fuel pool is proposed. But the baffle has a plurality of through-openings which enable liquid fuel to pass through the baffles to the pool while deflecting any return stream away from the fuel pool.
