Question 1 of 27070

In a double-effect distilling plant, the brine particles remaining entrained with the vapor produced in the evaporator first effect, are separated by __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Entrained brine removal in marine evaporators/distilling plants • How demisters/separators work to keep salt out of the vapor stream • Location and function of components in a double‑effect distilling plant (evaporator, flash chamber, feed heater, brine pump)

💭 Think About

• Which component is physically placed in the vapor path leaving the first effect specifically to knock out or remove droplets? • What is the main job of a flash chamber versus the devices that change the flow direction of vapor to separate liquid? • Among the options, which part is designed to move liquid and which is designed to condition or separate the vapor?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice is actually in the vapor space of the evaporator first effect, not in the liquid/brine circuit. • Confirm which device uses changes in vapor direction and velocity to separate droplets from the vapor. • Eliminate any components whose primary purpose is heating or pumping, rather than mechanical separation of entrained brine.
