Application:
In the field of thermal separation/concentration technology, evaporation plants are widely used for concentration of liquids in the form of solutions, suspensions, and emulsions
The major requirement in the field of evaporation technology is to maintain the quality of the liquid during evaporation and to avoid damage to the product
This may require the liquid to be exposed to the lowest possible boiling temperature for the shortest period of time
This and numerous other requirements and limitations have resulted in a wide variation of designs available today
In almost all evaporators the heating medium is steam, which heats a product on the other side of a heat transfer surface
The following list contains links to descriptions of the most common types of evaporators, and the ones that we most frequently design
Falling film evaporators
Rising film evaporators
Forced circulation evaporators
Plate evaporators
Compact evaporators
Thermal and mechanical vapor recompression (TVR and MVR)
Typical evaporator applications
Product concentration
Dryer feed pre-concentration
Volume reduction
Water/solvent recovery
Crystallization
