Abstract
Disclosed is a compact separation system suitable for separating components of a multiphase fluid stream. The compact separation system utilizes a cylindrical cyclone in conjunction with a filtration system. The filtration system incorporates filtration media having at least one of the following characteristics: hydrophilic-oleophobic characteristics or oleophilic-hydrophobic characteristics. The separation system is configured to substantially preclude gas under-carrying into the liquid conduit lines.
