Proven and reliable, the Alfa Laval FilmVap falling film evaporator effectively concentrates large volumes of low- to medium-fouling liquids – economically and energy-efficiently. Robust and easy to operate and maintain, this multiple-effect, shell-and-tube evaporator takes up less than comparable units, due to its innovative arrangement of highly efficient vapour-liquid separators. Uniform liquid distribution and adequate wetting helps reduce fouling, cleaning frequency and downtime.
High volumes of quality concentrate from heat-sensitive, fouling-prone process liquids in a compact, high-efficiency, low-maintenance evaporator
- High quality condensate due to efficient liquid distribution and vapour-liquid separation under vacuum conditions
- Low maintenance requirements due to low temperatures and high heat transfer efficiency, which reduce fouling
- Robust, user-friendly design with broad operating range for more uptime and low maintenance
- Versatile, easy to operate and highly adaptable to a wide variety of applications and capacities up to 50 tons per hour in a single unit
- Enhanced energy efficiency through the use of a multiple-effect arrangement or the addition of thermal or mechanical vapor recompression units
