  • Publication number: 20170136394
    Abstract: A liquid separation device for the separation of liquid or liquid mist from a gas, with at least one pair of basic carriers being a first and a second plate-shaped basic carrier, where in each of the first and the second basic carrier, at least two separator elements are formed. The separator elements each have a passage pipe with a gas inlet and a gas outlet, which are arranged at opposite sides of the respective plate-shaped basic carrier in such a way that the passage pipe extends through the respective plate-shaped basic carrier. The first and the second basic carrier being arranged one next to the other in flow direction of the gas. Each of the two separator elements in both basic carriers in which the separator elements are arranged adjacent to each other, with their passage pipes form continuous flow paths for the gas.
