Abstract:
A low-temperature distillation facility for distilling a mixed fluid into a pure fluid. An aggregation device has an inlet connected to the vapour space of a supercooling chamber, wherein captured mixed fluid from an evaporator enters the supercooling chamber. The aggregation device's outlet is connected to the vapour space of a superheating chamber, wherein captured pure fluid from a condenser can be sprayed into the superheating chamber. An energy source cools the temperature in the supercooling chamber and heats the temperature in the superheating chamber. A heat exchanger is arranged between the exits of the supercooling chamber and of the superheating chamber. During the process, vapour flows from the supercooling chamber via the aggregation device to the superheating chamber.

Claim (Index 1):
A low-temperature distillation facility (LTD) with one or more stages having different mean temperatures T i , for distilling a mixed fluid into a pure fluid, wherein each stage comprises:\n an evaporator with a vapour space and with a warmer Ti+\u0394T mixed fluid which can be introduced, a condenser with a vapour space and with a cooler T i \u2212\u0394T pure fluid which can be sprayed in, and wherein the vapour spaces of the evaporator and of the condenser are connected to one another into a common vapour space by way of vapour connections, in a manner such that the pressure and the temperature therein can equalise at all times in an unhindered manner, at least one aggregation device which at the entry side is connected to the vapour space of a supercooling chamber, wherein captured mixed fluid from an evaporator, with several evaporators from that of the coolest stage, can be brought into the supercooling chamber, and said aggregation device at the exit side is connected to the vapour space of a superheating chamber, wherein captured pure fluid from a condenser, with several condensers from that of the warmest stage can be sprayed into the superheating chamber, wherein the aggregation device is connected to an energy source for cooling the temperature in the supercooling chamber and for heating the temperature in the superheating chamber, wherein vapour flows from the supercooling chamber to the superheating chamber via the aggregation device during the process, and wherein a heat exchanger is arranged between the exits of the supercooling chamber and of the superheating chamber, for cooling the hot captured pure fluid from the superheating chamber, as the entry into the condenser, with several condensers into that of coolest stage, as well as for heating the cold, captured mixed fluid from the supercooling chamber, as the entry into an evaporator, with several evaporators into that of the warmest stage.
