The distillation system for boiler feedwater at this time was usually termed an evaporator, partly to distinguish it from a separate system or distiller used for drinking water. Separate systems were often used, especially in early systems, owing to the problem of contamination from oily lubricants in the feedwater system and because of the ...
Since its first expedition to the Titanic shipwreck in the summer of 2021, the Titan’s crews encountered problems aboard the submersible, including issues with its electrical system and battery ...
Halomonas titanicae is a gram-negative, halophilic species of bacteria which was isolated in 2010 from rusticles recovered from the wreck of the RMS Titanic. [1] It has been estimated by Henrietta Mann, one of the researchers that first isolated it, that the action of microbes like H. titanicae may bring about the total deterioration of the Titanic by 2030.

This reduces the energy needed by half to two-thirds, which drastically alters the economics of the plant, since energy is by far the largest operating cost of MSF plants. Reverse osmosis, MSF distillation's main competitor, requires more pretreatment of the seawater and more maintenance, as well as energy in the form of work (electricity ...

The plant comprises a number of tall distillation columns, separators and condensers. The first column in the plant is the de-ethaniser (W-413) which removes methane, ethane, and propane vapour from the liquid product. The vapour at the top of the column is at a pressure of 400 psig and a temperature of 119°F (27.6 barg and 48.3°C).
Titanic was 882 feet 9 inches (269.06 m) long with a maximum breadth of 92 feet 6 inches (28.19 m). The ship's total height, measured from the base of the keel to the top of the bridge, was 104 feet (32 m). [16] Titanic measured 46,329 GRT and 21,831 NRT [17] and with a draught of 34 feet 7 inches (10.54 m) and displaced 52,310 tonnes. [5]
