The separation of liquid droplets from the vapor is done by a/an _____________ in the evaporators?
Correct answer: A. Entrainment separator
- A. Entrainment separator
- B. Steam ejector
- C. Compressor
- D. Vacuum pump
Explanation
An entrainment separator, also called a vapor-liquid separator or demister, removes liquid droplets carried along with evaporator vapor. Ejectors and vacuum pumps create or maintain pressure conditions rather than directly separating droplets.
