Abstract
A system for downhole separation of at least one of fluids or solids comprises a fluid flow diverter to be positioned downhole in a well. The fluid flow diverter is configured to receive a formation fluid in a multilayer flow structure that comprises a production fluid and a nonproduction fluid, wherein the fluid flow diverter is configured to separate the production fluid and the nonproduction fluid by being adjusted such that more of the production fluid is above the fluid flow diverter than below the fluid flow diverter and such that more of the nonproduction fluid is below the fluid flow diverter than above the fluid flow diverter.
