The glycol solution, bearing all of the water stripped from the natural gas, is put through a specialized boiler designed to vaporize only the water out of the solution. The boiling point differential between water (100°C, 212°F) and glycol (204°C, 400°F) makes it relatively easy to remove water from the glycol solution, allowing it to be reused in the dehydration process.

GET A QUOTEBoiler feed pumps operate at fluid temperatures of 160 to 210 ºC. In exceptional cases the temperature of the fluid handled may be higher still. Feed pumps for 1600 MW nuclear power stations are constructed for mass flow rates of up to 4000 tonnes/h and feed pump discharge pressures of 70 to 100 bar.
GET A QUOTEbiomass boiler, and presented carbon emission numbers for both. The relevant sections of the permit are shown below.1 They reveal that the biomass boiler would emit 6 times more carbon (at 3,120 lb/MWh) than the adjacent natural gas turbine (at 510 lb/MWh).
