Abstract
The present techniques are directed to a method for removing entrained liquid hydrocarbons in a countercurrent contact separator to produce a lean hydrocarbons gas. The method includes introducing a gas stream into an inlet of the countercurrent contact separator and flowing the gas stream through a bulk separator to capture a portion of the entrained liquid hydrocarbons. The method includes flowing the gas stream through a plurality of cyclone bundles, where the plurality of cyclone bundles are located in risers to capture a remaining fraction of the entrained liquid hydrocarbons. The method includes flowing the captured entrained liquids downward into a drain line countercurrent to the gas stream. The method includes removing the captured entrained liquids through a bottom outlet of the countercurrent contact separator. The method includes removing the lean hydrocarbons gas through a top outlet of the countercurrent contact separator.
