dissipator
Thing that disperses
A dissipator is a person or device that dissipates—scatters, disperses, or uses up something.
In engineering, heat dissipators draw thermal energy away from components.
Applied to people, the word suggests someone who squanders resources or energy: a dissipator of family fortunes.
The term is uncommon outside technical contexts.
