Is there a difference between seperators or dryers (steam scrubbers) in a steam drum, or two different terms for the same function?

seperators or another name is cyclone seperators is located right after your baffle plate which directs the steam bubbles coming from your waterwall tubes. Once the saturated steam enters your cyclone seperator some of the moisture is release by the cyclone effect. You have to understand steam can change directions easier then water so the water falls back down and the steam continues on. Next is your scrubber which takes out more moisture and before any steam leaves the drum there is what is called a drybox. there are different arrangements. If you are able to look in the steam drum the scrubber will resemble a radiator and the dry box is mounted in the steam drum right at the top.
