Abstract

A liquid conservation device that utilizes a heat exchanger to condense water vapor from exhaust gas emanating from an exhaust treatment. Water evaporated during the emissions control process is recovered and returned for reuse, thereby significantly reducing the water requirement of the exhaust treatment. This is especially helpful for a mobile emissions control system that is normally not directly connected to a water utility.
