Abstract

A gas/liquid separator comprises an enclosure, comprising a pressure fluid port, a liquid/gas separator bag comprising a non-porous bag a large-surface hydrophobic membrane disposed within the non-porous bag and configured to pass only gas and trap liquid behind; a sweep gas fluid inlet in fluid communication with an interior of the enclosure; a fluid outlet in fluid communication with the interior of the enclosure; and a mixed fluid inlet in fluid communication with the non-porous bag. A pressure management system is in fluid communication with the enclosure. A pre-separator comprises a membrane disposed at least partially within a housing and a condensing heat exchanger. Fluid is provided from a fluid source to the condensing heat exchanger and the condensing heat exchanger used to resolve a temperature of the fluid to a predetermined temperature range. Liquid present in the fluid is trapped within the housing the large-surface hydrophobic membrane used to pass only gas into an interior of the enclosure and trap liquid within the liquid/gas separator bag.
