Abstract:
A primary separation apparatus for separating natural gas from high pressure, high velocity production streams comprising a liquid dispersion of water, sand, natural gas, and isolation plug cuttings.

Claim (Index 14):
A method of processing a production fluid containing a mixture of fracking fluids, drilled isolation plug cuttings, oil and natural gas, water, and sand or other sediment and small solid matter using a single separation device, the method comprising:\n flowing said production fluid into said separation device ( 100 ) through an inlet port ( 110 ) and through a first screen ( 144 ), thereby trapping drilled isolation plug cuttings within said first screen and filtering fluids and smaller solid matter radially outward through perforations of said first screen; impinging filtered fluids and smaller solid matter on a flow baffle ( 150 ), thereby further separating gas particles from said filtered fluids; flowing separated gas particles through a second screen ( 178 ), thereby trapping remaining sand and other small sediment within said second screen, wherein said separated gas particles then exit said separation device; and evacuating remaining separated fluids and solid matter through a liquid drain ( 138 ) at a bottom portion of said separation device.
