Forced Circulation Evaporator

Product description

Product Overview:

Forced Circulation Evaporator is a robust industrial evaporation system designed for concentrating viscous, fouling, or crystalline solutions. It uses a high-flow pump to circulate liquid through a heat exchanger at high velocity, preventing scaling and ensuring efficient heat transfer. Ideal for challenging applications where falling film or natural circulation evaporators are ineffective, this system excels in handling high-solid content, corrosive fluids, and solutions prone to crystallization.

Product details

Forced circulation evaporator is composed of
– Heater; Separator; Vapor-liquid separator; Condenser; Vacuum pump; Forced circulation pump; Discharging pump; Condensate pump; Electrical cabinet; Operation platform and all the pipe fittings & valves & instruments, etc.

Heater: vertical type tubular heater connect in series. The feed liquid is pumped into the first heater by forced circulation pump, then enters into the second heater. The heated liquid flow downwards in tubes, and flow into separator by tangential direction, better performance of vapor-liquid separation.

Separator: vertical type, the secondary steam is discharged from the top, pass through a vapor-liquid separator before entering into condenser. The bottom of separator is connected with a forced circulation pump.

Vapor-liquid separator: is used to prevent tiny liquid drops produced during evaporation from escaping with secondary steam, reducing loss of feed liquid and prevent pollution to pipeline and cooling water.

Condenser: condensate the huge secondary steam produced during evaporation into liquid by cooling water, making concentration carrying on smoothly. Meanwhile, separate non-condensable vapor from secondary steam and cooling water, make it easily pumped out by vacuum pump to guarantee vacuum degree.
