A flash separator consists of a vessel where the pressure is lower than the inlet stream. When the inlet stream enters the tank (which has a larger volume), the pressure may drop, as well as the temperature. When the pressure drops, the vapors dissolved in the liquid inlet will boil, "flash," into the vapor phase. Thus, the dissolved gases in the liquid are separated by "flashing" them.
