Thin film evaporator for temperature sensitive products
In the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, processing temperature sensitive products can be challenging. Traditional evaporation methods often compromise product integrity due to high temperatures and extended heating times, which can cause thermal degradation and material loss.
Ensures efficient evaporation with low residence time
The Thin Film Evaporator from De Dietrich is designed for the efficient evaporation of temperature sensitive products. By creating a thin film of liquid on the inner surface of a vertical pipe through a rotating wiper system, it minimizes residence time and operates at low evaporation temperatures. This method reduces hydrostatic pressure and avoids thermal degradation. Available in materials such as Stainless Steel, Alloy, Borosilicate Glass, and Glass-Lined Steel, these evaporators offer high evaporation rates and can handle highly viscous products and those containing solids. The transparent borosilicate glass construction allows for direct observation and optimal adjustment. With sizes ranging from DN40 to DN600, the system accommodates different operational needs in industries such as specialty chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and green chemistry.
