ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for substantially eliminating slug flow and for separating the liquid phase of a liquid/gas mixture from the gas phase thereof is provided. A deceleration table contained within a housing decelerates liquid slugs and causes entrained gas to separate therefrom. The decelerated liquid passes through orifices in the deceleration table and is subsequently discharged from the housing while the separated gas rises above the deceleration table and is separately discharged from the housing. The liquid and gas phases can be recombined or permanently separated.
