Excess brine accumulated in the distiller, shown in the illustration, is removed during normal operation by _______________. Illustration MO-0111

AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) the continuous action of ejector "22".
The excess brine accumulated in the distiller is removed by the continuous action of ejector "22". The ejector is responsible for maintaining the desired level of brine concentration in the distiller by continuously drawing off the excess brine. This helps prevent the accumulation of excess brine, which could negatively impact the distillation process.
The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the mechanism for removing excess brine. Option A focuses on the feed water regulation, which is not directly responsible for brine removal. Option B mentions a drain valve, but the question specifically states that the excess brine is removed during normal operation, not through a manual drain.
