Atmospheric glycol reclaimer with vapor recycle

摘要

Method and apparatus for purifying or reclaiming liquid desiccant comprising heating a water rich desiccant to form dilute desiccant vapor; partially condensing said vapor to produce a purified desiccant equal in strength to the feed stream, reintroducing a first stream of said vapor by sparging into the means of heating said desiccant and cooling a second stream of said vapor thereby refluxing condensible desiccant and venting non-condensible gases, and recovering condensed vapor for use elsewhere.
