Abstract
A gas-liquid-solid separator can include a separator body having a vertical outer wall and a gas collector having a vertical gas collector wall surrounded by the outer wall, with a gas inlet opening at a bottom of the gas collector. An annular volume between the gas collector wall and the outer wall can contain a plurality of inclined flow channels. The flow channels can have a channel inlet opening at the bottom and can slope upward following a helical path between the gas collector wall and the outer wall. A gas-liquid-solid mixture inlet opening can be in a floor of the separator body. The mixture opening can be positioned below the gas inlet opening and the mixture inlet opening can have a top-down profile that fits within a top-down profile of the gas inlet opening.
