ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for disposing of water at gas wells. Water from the gas-water separator is circulated through an evaporator kept partially filled with water. Hot exhaust from the gas compressor is circulated through the evaporator in heat exchange relation with the water under conditions which permit the water to vaporize. The steam is vented to the environment. Venting of the steam from the evaporator is facilitated by feeding a stream of hot exhaust from the muffler into the evaporator.
