Evaporator with dropping film: simple effect

DESCRIPTION   This unit is designed to separate a solid (solute) from a solvent or to raise the concentration of solute in the solution. This separation occurs through the complete or partial evaporation of the solvent. The process of simple evaporation can be monitored and controlled. Practical applications include using the unit to change the concentration of dissolved components in fruit juice or milk or for the desalination of sea water and brackish water. In order to operate semi-automatically, data collected by the unit is sent to a command box, which in turn transmits it to a PC containing the required software. (This software is an optional extra)
