Granted: 1910-08-11
Abstract: 18,605. Smith, J., Mitchell, H. L., Askham, W. H., and Hey, H. Aug. 12. Volatile solvents, recovering.-Volatile solvents &c. are recovered from the air with which they are mixed by causing the pump which withdraws the air mixture to draw into it a supply of oil or other absorbent for the solvent. The plant comprises an air-pump a, to which oil is supplied by pipes c and which discharges through pipes f and a cooler h to a cooled receiver g in which the air and liquid separate. The liquid is forced by a pump q to a still r, and, after the volatile body has been distilled off, the residual oil is pumped to a cooled store-tank d, the cocks v, w being open and the cocks t, u closed. The air from the receiver g passes through an absorption tower k, to which oil is supplied by a pipe p.
