The present disclosure describes a filtration device that includes a housing that includes a first tubular section connected to a second tubular section, wherein the first tubular section extends along a longitudinal axis and includes an open end that forms a fluid inlet of the housing, a closed end opposite the open end, and a connection opening positioned between the open and closed ends, and wherein the second tubular section includes a first open end connected to the connection opening of the first tubular section and a second open end that forms a fluid outlet of the housing; and a filter that is arranged inside of the first tubular section and that extends along the longitudinal axis of the first tubular section; wherein the filter includes an electromagnet configured to generate a magnetic field that surrounds at least the first tubular section and attracts metal contaminants in a fluid to the filter. A filter system is also described.

Recovering helium from a gaseous stream includes contacting an acid gas removal membrane with a gaseous stream to yield a permeate stream and a residual stream, removing a majority of the acid gas from the residual stream to yield a first acid gas stream and a helium depleted clean gas stream, removing a majority of the acid gas from the permeate stream to yield a second acid gas stream and a helium rich stream, and removing helium from the helium rich stream to yield a helium product stream and a helium depleted stream. A helium removal system for removing helium from a gaseous stream including hydrocarbon gas, acid gas, and helium includes a first processing zone including a first acid gas removal unit, a second processing zone including a second acid gas removal unit, a third processing zone, and a helium purification unit.
