Abstract:
A method is provided for high-efficiency removal of noncondensable gases (NCG) from geothermal steam. The present method is directed to an improvement for the treatment of geothermal steam to remove most of the residual NCG that would otherwise still be present in clean steam treated by NCG-removal methods of the prior art. In addition to the geothermal application and a preferred configuration, other applications and configurations are described and claimed.
