Dehydration Of Wet Gas Utilizing Intimate Contact With A Recirculating Deliquescent Brine

US Patent:
2005002, Feb 10, 2005
Filed:
Aug 8, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/637297
Inventors:
Jack Deetz - Houston TX, US
International Classification:
B01D053/02
US Classification:
095091000
Abstract:
A system for removing moisture from a wet gas stream including a vessel having a contact area containing deliquescing salts that produces brine as water is absorbed, the brine flowing to a collection area in the bottom of the vessel. A venturi positioned in a wet gas inlet stream produces an area of reduced pressure that is applied to a brine flow path connected to the brine collection area. In this way, the brine is recirculated into intimate contact with the wet gas inlet stream causing the brine to be diluted with water extracted from the wet gas stream.
