.~.~.~ And reduction of pressure (e.g., flashing, etc.)
DEFINITION
Classification: 95/246
And reduction of pressure (e.g., flashing, etc.):
(under subclass 245) Process in which the pressure acting on the liquid is decreased.
(1) Note. The pressure reduction may be used in a separate step in order to remove gas from the liquid in addition to the step of removing gas from the liquid by stripping with gas, or the pressure reduction may be used in order to aid the removal by stripping with gas.
