Abstract
The method of separating liquid from gas in a flow stream, that includes expanding the flow stream at a first zone to reduce flow stream pressure and increase flow stream velocity; centrifugally separating liquid from gas in the expanded flow stream, in a second zone; and increasing the pressure of the gas, from which liquid has been separated, by converting kinetic energy of the gas into pressure, at a third zone.
