PLUME SUPPRESSION WITH THERMOSYPHON SHELL AND TUBE HEAT EXCHANGERS

This disclosure relates to a process for steam plume suppression. The process involves using thermosyphon shell and tube heat exchangers to cool a hot gas stream, using a wet scrubber to clean the cooled hot gas stream and generate a wet gas comprising water vapor, and using thermosyphon shell and t...

More Information
Summary:This disclosure relates to a process for steam plume suppression. The process involves using thermosyphon shell and tube heat exchangers to cool a hot gas stream, using a wet scrubber to clean the cooled hot gas stream and generate a wet gas comprising water vapor, and using thermosyphon shell and tube heat exchangers to heat the wet gas above the dew point. This disclosure also relates to a steam plume suppression system. The system involves thermosyphon shell and tube heat exchangers and a wet scrubber.
