  2. Steam separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_separator

    A steam separator, sometimes referred to as a moisture separator or steam drier, is a device for separating water droplets from steam. The simplest type of steam separator is the steam dome on a steam locomotive. Stationary boilers and nuclear reactors may have more complex devices which impart a "spin" to the steam so that water droplets are ...

  3. Steam cleaning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_cleaning

    In ovens, steam cleaning is an alternative to catalysis and pyrolysis for making a self-cleaning oven, and uses a lower temperature (approximately 100 Celsius) compared to catalysis (approx. 200 Celsius) and pyrolysis (approx. 500 Celsius). [3]

  4. Hot water extraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_water_extraction

    Truck-mounted hot water extraction machine. Though commonly called "steam cleaning", no actual steam is involved in the HWE cleaning process apart from steam that may escape incidentally from hot water. When the cleaning solution comes in contact with the carpet, it is 50 to 120 degrees Celsius, depending on the heat available from the cleaning ...

    Steam Mops. Price: $50 and up The majority of steam mops tested by Consumer Reports failed to impress, simply pushing aside big messes and leaving floors looking dull. And steam mops can actually ...

  6. Venturi scrubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venturi_scrubber

    All venturi scrubbers require an entrainment separator because the high velocity of gas through the scrubber will have a tendency to entrain the droplets with the outlet clean gas stream. Cyclonic, mesh-pad, and blade separators are all used to remove liquid droplets from the flue gas and return the liquid to the scrubber water.

  7. Distillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distillation

    Like vacuum distillation, steam distillation is a method for distilling compounds which are heat-sensitive. [1]: 151–153 The temperature of the steam is easier to control than the surface of a heating element and allows a high rate of heat transfer without heating at a very high temperature. This process involves bubbling steam through a ...

  8. Vapor steam cleaner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_steam_cleaner

    The steam helps soak the pad and dirt is drawn off ground. Unlike regular mops, steam mops do not leave a residue on the floor and often clean through the dirt. The heat of the steam can kill about 99 percent of the bacteria and dust mites. Steam mops can disinfect floors, restore shine, kill dust mites, and remove some stains. Some feature a ...

  9. Vapor–liquid separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor–liquid_separator

    The feed to a vapor–liquid separator may also be a liquid that is being partially or totally flashed into a vapor and liquid as it enters the separator. A slug catcher is a type of vapor–liquid separator that is able to receive a large inflow of liquid at random times. It is usually found at the end of gas pipelines where condensate may be ...
