Rising/falling film plate evaporator for heat sensitive products
Efficiently concentrate heat-sensitive liquids with rising/falling film technology, ideal for small to medium production runs where precise water removal and multi-duty flexibility are essential.

Concentrates Heat-Sensitive Liquids Efficiently
The Rising/Falling Film Plate Evaporators are engineered to meet the demands of processing heat-sensitive liquids across various industries such as beverage, dairy, and pharmaceutical. Designed for flexibility and multi-duty operation, this system efficiently concentrates liquids by utilizing a rising and falling film evaporation process. With water removal capacities ranging from 1,000 to 35,000 lbs/hr, these evaporators handle small to medium production runs, while junior plate variants cater to pilot plant trials starting at 100 lbs/hr.
Ideal for producing end-products like orange juice concentrate, instant coffee, and high fructose corn syrup, the evaporators integrate seamlessly into existing production lines. They offer scalable solutions with the option for multiple-effect configurations to maximize thermal efficiency. Constructed from durable materials to ensure long-term reliability, these systems are suitable for various operational environments, including those requiring stringent hygiene standards.
Whether you’re in food processing or chemical sectors, the evaporators are compatible with numerous industry standards and can be customized for specific process requirements, ensuring they fit perfectly within your production framework.
