Abstract

<PICT:0620653/III/1> Materials are dehydrated by exposing the material to a vacuum, vaporizing in a separate chamber a solvent which is completely miscible with water and has the property of reducing the freezing point of water, introducing water vapour from the material undergoing dehydration and the vaporized solvent simultaneously into a condensing chamber so as to form a liquid mixture, and then withdrawing this mixture from the system. Methyl, ethyl, isopropyl alcohol or acetone may be used as the solvent. The material is introduced into trays 16 in chamber 10 which is connected by conduit 90 to condensing chamber 60. The latter is also connected by conduit 92 to container 96 which contains the solvent. The system is evacuated by pump 70. Each tray is heated by circulating hot fluid through coils 18; refrigerating fluid is passed through coils 62, and valve 94 is opened. Water vapour from chamber 10 and solvent vapour from container 96 are simultaneously drawn into condensing chamber 60 where they condense as a low-freezing liquid mixture on coils 62. The condensate drops into funnel 72 and is withdrawn from the system by pump 76.
