A new absorption vapor compression distillation was proposed in present research. An open absorption heat transformer has a coupled thermally evaporator and absorber. Distillation of waste water with high content of SiO 2 from heavy oil production. The waste heat of 70 C can be elevated up to 125 C and generate steam of 120 C. The waste heat is able to drive four-effect distillation to produce ...

Environmental considerations will probably change automobile fuels from gasoline and gas-oil to hydrogen (as fuel cell) in the future. Problems of fossil fuels include producing gaseous pollutants, such as NOx, CO, and even SO2 (from incomplete-hydrotreated fuels), which need catalytic converters and greenhouse gas emission (such as CO2, CH4, N2O) from the exhaust with a drastic effect on globa...
