Capital costs are directly related to the size of the housings required for a particular
gas flow rate. An evaluation of the factors affecting vessel sizing indicated that the
annular space surrounding the exterior of the element is a key variable in the
design. The annular space controls the annular velocity of the treated gas. If this

The liquid contaminant enter the gas stream through any one of a variety of events
including phase separation and condensation, compressor lube-oils from
compression, chemical addition to pipelines (including corrosion inhibitors), and
entrainment from overheads of contact towers resulting in aerosol distributions
primarily in the nanometer range.
