摘要:
An evaporator assembly includes an inlet member and a diffuser, and receives a mixture of a gas and a solution to vaporize a portion of a solvent from the solution. First portions of the diffuser and of the inlet member collectively define a first flow path. A second portion of the diffuser defines a second flow path that diverges. A third portion of the diffuser and a second portion of the inlet member collectively define an evaporation volume between the first flow path and the second flow path. At least one of the diffuser or the inlet flow member includes multiple vanes that produce a rotation within a flow of the mixture when the flow exits the first flow path into the evaporation volume. A separator receives the mixture to produce a first flow of a portion of the solvent and a second flow of a portion of the solute.

An apparatus for extracting an oil from plant material includes an extraction chamber for plant material. The plant material is exposed to a heated gas stream with a temperature sufficient to volatilize on oil from the plant material. The gas stream is rapidly cooled to liquefy the oil into entrained droplets. The oil is collected with a collection solvent.

Process for removal of salts thermally non-regenerable in a temperature range from 0° C. to 200° C., from organic solvents in an aqueous solution by evaporation, the normal boiling point of organic solvents being higher than that of water, and by enriching the organic constituents existing in the solvent as well as the heat stable salts existing therein in a liquid phase forming by evaporation of water and a portion of the organic constituents of a first vessel, and discharging an evolving vaporous phase from the first vessel. In particular, the liquid phase formed in the first vessel is passed into a second vessel, water in vaporous and/or liquid form being passed into the second vessel, water and another portion of the organic constituents contained in the solvent being evaporated and forming a vaporous phase which is discharged from the second vessel, the heat stable salts being enriched in concentration in the liquid phase forming in the second vessel, and wherein a partial stream of the liquid phase formed in the second vessel is discharged from the second vessel.

An apparatus for evaporating waste water and reducing flue gas acid gas emissions includes an evaporator device configured to receive a portion of flue gas emitted from a combustion unit and waste water for direct contact of the flue gas with the waste water to cool and humidify the flue gas, and to evaporate the waste water. An alkaline reagent as well as activated carbon may be mixed with the waste water prior to waste water contact with the flue gas. Solid particulates that are dried and entrained within the cooled and humidified flue gas can be separated from the flue gas via a particulate collector.

A method for separating at least one of components with different vapor pressures from a solution that includes the components by atomizing the solution. The method includes an atomization step, and a separation step. A solution L is atomized into mist in air whereby producing mist-mixed air in the atomization step. Droplets of the mist included in the mist-mixed air are classified according to their particle diameter sizes, and exhaust air that contains air as carrier gas is exhausted in the separation step. In the atomizing separation method, the heat energy of both of the latent heat and sensible heat that are included in the exhaust air exhausted in the separation step are collected, and one or both of the solution L to be atomized in the atomization step and air to be blown toward the solution L are heated by the collected heat.

A method for supplying a process with an enriched carrier gas. A first apparatus and a second apparatus are provided. The first apparatus has a precursor and is configured to bring a carrier gas into contact with the precursor and to enrich the carrier gas with the precursor. The second apparatus has a precursor and is configured to bring a carrier gas into contact with the precursor and to enrich the carrier gas with the precursor. The first apparatus supplies the second apparatus with an enriched carrier gas. The second apparatus supplies the enriched carrier gas for the process. A temperature of the first apparatus is controlled as a function of a quantity of precursor in the second apparatus.

A process of mass transfer is described which utilises latent heat transfer with little or sensible heat transfer. In a preferred process microbubbles are used under certain conditions of contact with a liquid phase to ensure highly effective mass transfer between a gaseous and liquid phase with significantly less than expected or little or no sensible heat transfer. The present invention in part provides a means by which the known state of a cold liquid of varying depths can be changed using a hot gas injected via a micro bubble inducing internal mixing without allowing the resultant mixture to reach equilibrium thereby ensuring the transfer process becomes continuous. Thus a process is described wherein at least one gaseous phase is contacted with at least one liquid phase such that the heat ratio of the system (AA) is maintained at an a value of greater than 0.5, and the mass transfer is effected by passing a gaseous phase comprising microbubbles through a liquid phase of thickness no more than 10 cm.
摘要:
A process for removing organic compounds from a brine solution permits processing of that solution in a chlor-alkali electrochemical cell. A brine solution containing a mixture of nonvolatile organic compounds is introduced into a tank with a selected volume of acid and is heated to boiling. Nonvolatile organic compounds in the solution are decomposed such that they become volatile compounds, which are removed by distillation from the tank or by additional subsequent steam distillation. The resulting brine solution has a final total organic compound (TOC) level sufficiently low to render its suitable for use in a membrane, diaphragm or other type of chlor-alkali electrochemical cell.
摘要:
The present invention is an improved thermal evaporation process capable of economically producing fresh water from a high saline water. The process employs the use of a multiphase pump with a compressor for injection of hot air into a brine stream. A series of mixers, separators and condensers separate the brine steam into a concentrated brine, a vapor brine and condensate. A portion of the concentrated brine is discharged and the remainder recycled to obtain conversion efficiencies approaching 80 percent.
