  • Publication number: 20250050287
    Abstract: A method for regulating the humidity in a gas. In the first step, the humidity in a gas entering a bubbler at a flow rate is regulated between 200 NL/h and 2,000 NL/h. The gas entering the bubbler through the inlet of the bubbler tank passes throughout the first porous matrix. The humidified gas comes out through the outlet of the bubbler tank and circulates towards a compressor. In the second step, the gas derived from the first step is dried. The gas coming out of the compressor passes through a T-shaped tube including one inlet and two outlets. One of the outlets is arranged vertically and lets the liquid phase of the gas flow by gravity effect, thereby creating a condensate. The other outlet is connected at the bottom of a desiccant reservoir.
