quick overview :
This unit consists of two falling-film shell-and-tube evaporators and of a shell-and-tube condenser; the first stage is heated by steam, whereas the second stage is heated by the solvent vaporized in the first stage. The evaporator is fed by a metering pump and it works under vacuum thanks to a liquid-ring vacuum pump. The concentrated product and the vaporized solvent are collected into two glass tanks. The automated version is equipped with 2 PID controllers that enable to control the flow rate of steam reaching the evaporator, the vacuum degree in the system and the level of the first stage, automatically.
TRAINING PROGRAM
This unit enables to deepen the following issues:
• Mass balances
