process overview

Evaporation is a critical process for concentrating solutions by removing solvent (typically water). EcoProcess provides a range of technologies tailored to specific requirements: 

Multi-Effect Evaporators (MEE)

Series of stages where vapor from one effect heats the next, improving steam economy 

Falling Film Evaporators (FFE)

Ideal for heat-sensitive, low-viscosity liquids (dairy), short residence times, high heat transfer 

Forced Circulation Evaporators (FCE)

Pump creates high velocity, prevents fouling, ideal for viscous, crystallizing, scaling materials 

Wiped Film Evaporators (WFE)            

Rotating wiper for highly viscous or heat-sensitive materials, very short residence times 

Key Performance Metrics

Process Diagrams

Understanding the flow of vacuum and short path distillation systems

Multi-Effect Evaporator (MEE)           

Fresh steam heats the first effect → Vapor generated heats the subsequent effect at lower pressure                         

 

 

Thermal Vapor Recompression (TVR)

Steam ejector compresses low-pressure vapor using high-pressure steam → Recycled as heating medium 

 

 

Mechanical Vapor Recompression (MVR)

Mechanical compressor captures low-pressure vapor → Compresses to higher temperature/ pressure → Recycled as primary heat source → Nearly eliminates external steam
