Multiple-effect vacuum evaporators (one phase).

The ENVIDEST MFE series thermal vacuum evaporator is designed to treat large volumes of aqueous-based streams with a low contaminant load. The equipment can be manufactured to operate using saturated steam or hot water to heat the product to be concentrated. The condensation of the generated vapour is carried out by supplying cooling water.

It is available in single-effect or multi-effect (double and triple) versions. The multi-effect versions are notable for their high energy efficiency, as they utilize the latent heat of generated vapour, thereby reducing the energy consumed.

Additionally, each effect is equipped with a recirculation pump to ensure forced circulation of the liquid, helping to prevent the formation of scale on the main heat exchanger. Its modular construction allows for an increase in production capacity without a significant rise in energy consumption.

The operation of the equipment is fully automatic - 24 hours a day.
