Abstract
A scrubbing/degassing apparatus comprises a degassing column for removing extraneous gaseous matter from water; and a flow control arrangement for controlling a flow of water to the degassing column. The flow control arrangement comprises an upper reservoir mounted above the degassing column for receiving a supply of water, a controllable valve responsive to predetermined control signals for regulating the flow of water to the upper reservoir, a level sensor operatively coupled with the upper reservoir and responsive to the level of water therein for producing said predetermined control signals in a predetermined systematic fashion in accordance with this level, and structure defining an adjustable orifice of selectively variable size intermediate the upper reservoir and the column for delivering water from the upper reservoir to the column; the rate of flow of water from the upper reservoir to the column being controlled by the level of water in the upper reservoir set by the level sensor together with the selected size of the adjustable orifice.
