Falling film evaporator for thermal separation
In industries requiring the separation of volatile components from liquids, reducing energy consumption and minimizing thermal impact on products can be challenging. These processes need effective evaporation methods to achieve precise and gentle separation.
Achieve efficient thermal separation
The Falling Film Evaporator by De Dietrich Process Systems ensures gentle and efficient thermal separation with minimal investment. The product feed enters from the top, and using a distribution system, it is evenly distributed across the tubes. Gravity pulls the liquid film downward, evaporating the volatile fraction as it descends. Depending on the configuration, the evaporated fraction exits either through the top or the bottom. The design’s low residence time and compatibility with multiple effect evaporation or mechanical vapor recompression make it energy-efficient. The falling film evaporator is particularly useful in processes requiring minimal thermal impact, like in the pharmaceutical and fine chemicals industries.
Benefits
- Low residence time ensuring minimal thermal impact
- Reduced energy costs with mechanical vapor recompression
- Even distribution leading to efficient evaporation
- Suitable for various industrial applications
- Minimal investment required
