Defoaming plates

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-000981

Internal components within separation vessels designed to break down foam that forms on the surface of liquids. These plates provide a large surface area for gas bubbles to coalesce and rupture, facilitating more efficient gas-liquid separation. They are commonly found in oil and gas separators and treaters.
