Abstract
An apparatus is provided for separating a liquid from a gas-liquid mixture. The apparatus has an enclosure having an inlet and an outlet defining a flow path for the gas-liquid mixture. The apparatus includes a plurality of plates in the enclosure that are arranged in the flow path between the inlet and outlet, with the plates being configured to coalesce liquid from the gas-liquid mixture contacting the plates. A reservoir may be in fluid communication with the plates and be positioned to receive fluid coalesced by the plates. The plates may be arranged so as to create a turbulent flow of the gas-liquid mixture flowing from the inlet toward the outlet.
