Abstract
The present invention relates to packaged apparatus for controlling the hydrocarbon dewpoint of a gas stream particularly adapted for use in a cold environment. A weather-tight enclosure is provided which includes a liquid desiccant dehydration unit for dehydrating the gas stream and means for cooling the dehydrated gas stream whereby a residue gas stream having a desired hydrocarbon dewpoint is produced. Portions of the dehydration unit and means for cooling the gas stream extend outside the enclosure so that they are subjected to the cold environment and are cooled thereby and heat generated by the dehydration unit and means for cooling the gas stream is utilized to heat the interior of the enclosure.
