Abstract: The present set of embodiments relate to a system, method, and apparatus for separating cells from a suspension using a gravity driven cell separation device. The apparatus may include a chamber that is separated into a gas compartment and a liquid compartment allowing for transfer of gas through a membrane into the liquid compartment where the cell suspension flows during operation. The embodiments are designed to maximize the gravitational separation effect on the suspension while mitigating the loss of surface area through which gas transfer can occur through a membrane to provide nutrients to cells in the suspension by tilting the cell separation device on two or more axes.
