Summary

THE AUTHOR ARGUES THAT NO CONVENTIONAL OIL SEPARATOR IS CAPABLE OF REMOVING OIL VAPOUR FROM DISCHARGE GAS, THE TEMPERATURE OF WHICH DETERMINES THE QUANTITY OF OIL VAPOUR IT MAY HOLD. OIL VAPOUR WILL CONDENSE IN THE CONDENSER AND FROM THERE MAY CIRCULATE TO THE EVAPORATOR. IN BOTH CONDENSER AND EVAPORATOR HEAT TRANSFER SURFACES WILL BE AFFECTED RESULTING IN LESS EFFECTIVE HEAT TRANSFER, LOWER EVAPORATING AND HIGHER CONDENSING TEMPERATURES AND THEREFORE INCREASED ENERGY. THE PAPER SHOWS AN OIL SCRUBBER IN WHICH OIL IS CONDENSED BY INJECTION OF LIQUID AMMONIA AND IS THEN SCRUBBED FROM AMMONIA VAPOUR BY TWO STAGE LIQUID SCRUBBING. D.W.H.
