ABSTRACT:
A pressure relief device for a process or pipeline including a vertical column, preferably open to the atmosphere near the top, having a certain level of liquid therein and a conduit loop in fluid communication with the column and attached to the column near the bottom of the column and generally extending upward to a predetermined distance from the bottom to a point wherein the conduit is in fluid communication with the pipeline, the conduit having a certain level of liquid which is dependent upon the column liquid level, the pressure in the pipeline, and the density of the liquid, the column having a diameter and height large enough to prevent entrainment of the liquid when the pressure in the pipeline is relieving.
