Product Description
The purpose of evaporation is to vaporize the solvent in order to enrich the solute in the solution.
At the end of the operation the substance recovered is known as the concentrate.
A conventional evaporator is heated by steam which condenses and transmits heat energy to the solution to be evaporated.
As this solution boils it in turn releases vapor which may
Either be condensed in a condenser, in which case the process is known as single effect evaporation.
Or be used to heat another evaporator, in which case it is known as multiple effect.
In theory an unlimited number of evaporators may be associated in series in this way.

FAQ's of INDUSTRIAL SINGLE EFFECT EVAPORATOR:
Q: How does the single effect evaporator concentrate industrial liquids?
A: The evaporator uses steam heating to transfer heat to the liquid feed inside its shell and tube structure, causing the solvent (typically water) to evaporate. This process leaves behind a concentrated solution, ideal for applications requiring reduced liquid volume and increased product concentration.
Q: What types of industries benefit from using this evaporator model?
A: This evaporator is widely used in effluent treatment, food processing, chemical manufacturing, and pharmaceutical industries. Its robust design and automation features make it suitable for any operation that requires reliable, continuous concentration of liquid products.
Q: When should the evaporator be cleaned, and how is cleaning performed?
A: Cleaning should be conducted at intervals specified by your process requirements or whenever residue is detected. The integrated CIP (Clean-in-place) system allows for automated cleaning without dismantling, ensuring minimum downtime and optimal hygiene.
Q: Where can this evaporator be installed within an industrial facility?
A: The unit is skid mounted, allowing flexible installation in various plant locations. Its compact and customizable dimensions ensure it can be tailored to fit available space in both new and existing facilities.
Q: What is the benefit of having a PLC-based automation system in this evaporator?
A: PLC-based automation enhances process control, consistency, and operator safety. It enables real-time monitoring and adjustment of parameters, improving product quality and reducing operational errors.
Q: How does the shell and tube condenser contribute to the evaporation process?
A: The shell and tube condenser efficiently condenses the vapor generated during evaporation back into a liquid. This process improves energy recovery, minimizes vapor loss, and supports overall efficiency of the evaporation system.
Q: What is the typical service life of this evaporator, and what factors influence its longevity?
A: With a service life of over 15 years, longevity relies on proper operation, routine maintenance, and adherence to recommended cleaning schedules. The use of high-quality stainless steel materials further extends the system's operational lifespan.
