A bubble trap assembly for critical bioprocess applications. The assembly includes a disposable liner for placing in a fluid stream of a critical bioprocess application. The liner includes at least one gas port disposed on a top of the liner, and at least two fluid ports disposed substantially on the bottom of the liner. The fluid ports are adapted to be coupled in-line to the critical bioprocess application. A rigid vessel is included for housing the liner. The liner being sized to substantially conform to a shape of the inside of the vessel. The vessel includes at least one upper aperture for aligning with the at least one gas port and a bottom opening opposed to the at least one upper aperture. A bottom cap is included, removeably secured to the vessel and closing the bottom opening. The bottom cap together with the vessel substantially enclosing the liner. The bottom cap includes at least one lower aperture for aligning with the fluid ports.
