Abstract
Apparatus for the distillation of sea water and desulfurization has a vessel directly contacting waste gases exhausting from a boiler with sea water for absorbing sulfur oxides contained within the waste gases, an oxidation device to convert the sulfites that are produced by absorption of the sulfur oxide into sulfates through a catalytic action of metallic ions in the sea water, a decarbonization device, a deaerator, and a heating type distillation apparatus that uses the sea water used for the desulfurization as supplementary water. The oxidation, desulfurization and the separation of air are processes conducted continuously.
