Abstract: A container for facilitating solid phase-liquid phase separation has all corrosive resistant materials on the liquid-contacting surfaces. A center wall of polyethylene is provided to increase the surface area available for separation. Support structure for the filter medium includes either a poly grate or a poly cuspated plastic or a combination thereof. Poly connectors and drain lines complete the structure ensuring that the container has high durability and will provide a long, corrosion-free life. A specially formulated highly lubricious material (high molecular weight polyethylene) is utilized for the poly walls to enable rapid clean out of the container.

Abstract: A fuel nozzle for a gas turbine combustor that includes an extended flange. At a first end, the extended flange may be configured to engage an end cover, thereby securing the position of the fuel nozzle within the combustor. At a second end, the extended flange may be configured to engage a swozzle, within which a supply of fuel and compressed air is mixed during the operation of the combustor. The extended flange may be formed as a single piece.
