Original Abstract Submitted
A steam compression device (gas compression device) includes: a second gas-liquid separator (gas-liquid separator) that evaporates water to generate water vapor and separates the water vapor from the water; an exhaust heat recovery heat exchanger (heat recovery unit) that supplies the water heated by hot water to the second gas-liquid separator (gas-liquid separator); a compressor that compresses the water vapor supplied from the second gas-liquid separator (gas-liquid separator); and a superheater that heats the water vapor by heat exchange between the hot water supplied to the exhaust heat recovery heat exchanger (heat recovery unit) and the water vapor supplied from the second gas-liquid separator (gas-liquid separator) to the compressor, in which the hot water flows through the superheater and the exhaust heat recovery heat exchanger in this order.
