Technology

In a similar way to an EvapCare™-W, the product film is agitated by a rotor on the inner wall of the vessel. The vapors are generated by heat input from the wall to the film. These vapors migrate to the central condenser where they are condensed as “Distillate” (D). This distillate flows down the tubes of the condenser and leaves the evaporator from the bottom nozzle. The fraction of the film that reaches the bottom of vessel is called “Concentrate” (C). It is collected at the bottom of the shell.
