ABSTRACT:
A tank for removing unabsorbed gas from a mixture of unabsorbed gas and liquid. The tank has an inlet pipe that carries an unabsorbed gas and liquid mixture into the tank. A deflector is located at the exit of the inlet pipe so that when the unabsorbed gas and liquid mixture strikes the deflector there is a rapid reduction of flow velocity of the mixture and a directional change of flow of the mixture. A separation chamber, in the form of a cylinder, extends at one end into a gas pocket and at the other end into the mixture at the bottom of the tank past the deflector so that once the mixture hits the deflector the less dense unabsorbed gas is directed generally upwards. When it reaches the top of the separation chamber the unabsorbed gas passes into the gas pocket. A liquid retention chamber is defined by the wall of a second cylinder and an outlet pipe. The second cylinder is concentrically placed around the first cylinder such that the wall of the second cylinder extends to a height below the wall of the first cylinder and below the height of the mixture in the tank.
