three phase separator problems

three phase separator problems

three phase separator problems

(OP)
Dear All,

I have some questions :

Well fluid pressure is drop from 100 to 50 psig
What items to be adjusted with the existing three phase separator to maintain good performance, since heavy component is lost to gas stream?
Is set poit operating pressure/level control need be adjusted or any other method?  

Thank you all for your help
   

RE: three phase separator problems

Lower pressure = change in liquid separation rates from gas and lower residence times for gas (depending on flowrate).  You need to calculate it.  hint - GPSA
