Abstract
A device for treating a substantially gaseous medium includes a number of parallel plates ( ) which are connected to each other and provided adjacent to each other in such a manner that they, via port holes in the plates ( ), form a first channel ( ) and a second channel ( ′). The first channel ( ) is arranged to transport the gaseous medium, and the second channel ( ′), which is separated from but in heat transferring contact with the first channel ( ), is arranged to transport a cooling medium for cooling the gaseous medium. At least a part ( ) of the first channel ( ) is arranged to separate liquid from the gaseous medium. The part ( ) of the first channel ( ) is formed by a plurality of plate interspaces between a part of the plates ( ), wherein at least one of the plates ( ), delimiting one of the plate interspaces, is arranged to be passed by the gaseous medium on both sides thereof.
