Falling Film Evaporator
The falling film evaporator is a high-efficiency, non-circulating evaporator designed for the gentle and continuous evaporation of liquids. It is particularly well-suited for heat-sensitive materials and low-concentration solutions that are prone to degradation or unlikely to crystallize during processing.
In this evaporator, the liquid flows downward in a thin film along the inner walls of vertical tubes, enabling rapid heat transfer with minimal residence time. Operation under vacuum further reduces evaporation temperature, making it ideal for thermally sensitive liquids. This ensures consistent product quality, maximizes energy efficiency, and makes the falling film evaporator especially suitable for low-viscosity liquids in applications such as concentration and solvent recovery.
Falling film evaporators are widely used in food manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and environmental engineering. Typical applications include low-temperature, continuous evaporation and concentration of food ingredients such as milk, glucose, starch, and xylose, as well as waste liquid recovery and solvent recycling processes.
