Three Phase Vertical Separator Operation and Design
Three-phase separators are commonly used in the oil and gas industry to separate the mixture of gas, oil, and water. This article deals with the basic theory behind three-phase separators, their general types, and the design of each type of three-phase separators. Working of Separator. There are three stages of separation in a separator.

From a design standpoint, separators are split into three stages (or sections). Primary Stage. This is a mechanical operation; it uses an inlet diverter so that the momentum of the liquid in the gas causes the largest droplets to impinge on the diverter, forming droplets that are separated by gravity. The gas stream flows to the …
