SALINE/SEWAGE WATER RECLAMATION SYSTEM

摘要

The present water reclamation system (30) includes a series of concentric th in shells including outer shell (40), intermediate shell (32), and inner shell (34). The shells mount within a housing (50) that can be maintained under vacuum or low pressure. The shells rotate at high velocity. Contaminated liquid from outside the housing is injected into the space between half the shells. The centrifugal force causes the liquid to form a thin film along th e inward facing surface of the shell. A compressor (220) lowers the pressure adjacent the thin film causing the liquid to boil. The compressor carries th e vapor to the other side of those shells at a slightly higher temperature. There the vapor encounters the wall, which is cooler because its heat was transferred to boil the contaminated liquid. The vapor condenses, and rotati on throws the condensate against the adjacent wall where it is collected. When condensing, the heat of condensation transfers to the shell for boiling the incoming contaminated liquid. The system (30) needs no heat sources other th an the energy of vapor compression to complete the cycle flow from vaporization to condensation.
