The present invention relates to a system for desorption of acid gas (1) from an acid gas rich absorption liquid having a steam part (3) and a process part (4). The steam part (3) and the process part (4) are separated to prevent intermixing of fluids in the steam part with fluids in the process part. The system (1) comprises a desorption cylinder (9) which is adapted to rotate about a longitudinal axis of rotation A of the desorption cylinder (9), and a stationary support stand (19) for supporting the desorption cylinder (9), and means for rotating (18) the desorption cylinder. The steam part (3) and the process part (4) are integrated in the desorption cylinder (9) and steam is supplied to the steam part (3) and acid gas rich absorption liquid (2) is supplied to the process part (4). The process part (4) comprises a desorption chamber (12) provided with a stripper unit (33) having an integrated reboiler (52) and the process part (4) is provided with means for discharging an acid gas lean absorption fluid (2) and having means for removing acid gas rich vapor (8), and the steam part (3) is provided with means for discharging condensate (6). The present invention also relates to a method for desorption of acid gas from an acid gas rich absorption liquid.

This disclosure provides water processing apparatuses, systems, and methods for recovering purified water and concentrated brine from wastewater. The water processing apparatuses, systems, and methods utilize ionomer membrane technology to separate water vapor from volatiles of a wastewater stream. The wastewater stream is evaporated into a gas stream including water vapor and volatiles of the wastewater stream in an evaporation container. The gas stream is delivered to a water separation module spatially separated from and fluidly coupled to the evaporation container. The water vapor of the gas stream is separated out in the water separation module while the volatiles are rejected. The water vapor can be collected into purified water while concentrated brine from the wastewater stream is left behind in the evaporation container.

According to one embodiment, a gas processing equipment includes an oxygen remover 2 that removes oxygen contained in exhaust gas G, and a gas processing device 3 that processes pretreated exhaust gas G (P), from which the oxygen has been removed by the oxygen remover 2, with a carbon dioxide absorbent solvent S as a treatment agent.

The invention provides the use of hydroxide ions as a heat source in a CO.sub.2 absorption process.

Disclosed herein is a power-to-water (P2W) battery and its use for converting atmospheric water vapor into water by surplus renewable energy. The P2W battery includes, a thermal energy storage (TES) unit made of high-storage-density media for storing heat; a hygroscopic solution container consists of an inner container made of a conduction material for receiving the TES unit therein, a water vapor permeable membrane disposed outside and around the inner container, a hygroscopic solution disposed between a space formed between the inner container and the water vapor permeable membrane; and a condenser disposed downstream and coupled to the hygroscopic solution container; wherein the hygroscopic solution is capable of absorbing the atmospheric water vapor, which is released by heat stored within the TES unit when the TES unit is received in the inner container; and the atmospheric water vapor released from the hygroscopic solution is condensed into water by the condenser.

An apparatus for collecting carbon dioxide from flue gas of a power plant. The apparatus includes an absorption tower, a sedimentation pool including slanting boards, a regeneration tower, a gas-liquid separator, a desiccator, a compressor, and a condenser. A rich solution is adapted to flow from a bottom of the absorption tower into the sedimentation pool for stratification. A gas outlet of the gas-liquid separator is in series connection with the desiccator, the compressor, the condenser, and a liquid carbon dioxide storage tank.

A solvent system for the removal of acid gases from mixed gas streams is provided. Also provided is a process for removing acid gases from mixed gas streams using the disclosed solvent systems. The solvent systems may be utilized within a gas processing system.
