In numerous industrial fields, an efficient evaporation process is crucial for improving production efficiency and ensuring product quality. As an efficient evaporation equipment, the centrifugal thin-film evaporator is widely used in various industries such as Chinese and Western pharmaceuticals, food, light industry, petroleum, chemical industry, and environmental protection due to its unique advantages. Through innovative design, it significantly enhances evaporation efficiency and flexibility in material processing.

 

 

 

1. Excellent Heat Transfer Efficiency and Strong Evaporation Capacity: The design of centrifugal thin-film evaporators enables them to achieve extremely high heat transfer coefficients, which directly translates into strong evaporation capacity and high thermal efficiency. Their efficient heat transfer characteristics ensure that a large amount of materials can be processed per unit time.

 

2. Short Material Heating Time, Protecting Heat-Sensitive Components: The internal wiper not only distributes materials but also, due to its pumping characteristics, greatly shortens the residence time of materials in the evaporator. Meanwhile, the equipment usually operates under vacuum conditions, further reducing the operating temperature, which is particularly critical for the processing of heat-sensitive materials, effectively preventing component decomposition and ensuring the quality and activity of the final product.

 

3. Wide Viscosity Adaptation Range: Centrifugal thin-film evaporators can handle both low-viscosity and high-viscosity materials with ease. They can process materials with an extremely wide range of viscosity variations, demonstrating their strong adaptability in complex material processing.

 

4. Convenient Operation and Easy Regulation: The equipment supports continuous production under closed conditions, facilitating automated control. The adjustment of product indicators is relatively simple, contributing to stabilizing the production process and ensuring product consistency.

 

5. Compact Design and Easy Maintenance: Centrifugal thin-film evaporators typically occupy a small area and have a concise structural design. This not only saves valuable plant space but also makes daily maintenance and cleaning of the equipment easier, reducing operating costs.

 

The efficient operation of centrifugal thin-film evaporators mainly relies on the centrifugal force generated by the high-speed rotating rotor inside. After materials continuously enter from the large-diameter end of the evaporator, they are quickly dispersed and accelerated by the high-speed rotating wiper blades, immediately forming a uniform and extremely thin flowing liquid film on the heating surface. This design ensures that the heating surface can be completely wetted by the materials, independent of the evaporation ratio or feed rate, thereby effectively reducing or even completely eliminating the risk of local material overheating and thermal degradation.

 

During the evaporation process, volatile light components (low boilers) vaporize into steam and enter the vapor-liquid separator. The separator can effectively capture droplets and foam that may be entrained in the steam, returning them to the liquid phase (high boilers). The separated pure steam can then enter an external condenser for condensation and recovery, or directly proceed to the next process. The heavy components (high boilers) move along the heating wall to the outlet at the small end and are discharged. It is precisely due to this unique structure and working method that centrifugal thin-film evaporators can operate under a relatively high vacuum degree, further reducing the operating temperature, shortening the material heating time, making them particularly suitable for the evaporation treatment of heat-sensitive materials.

 

 

In summary, centrifugal thin-film evaporators, with their efficient heat transfer performance, good protection for heat-sensitive materials, wide viscosity adaptability, convenient operation and maintenance, and compact structural design, have become the ideal choice for achieving efficient and high-quality evaporation processes in numerous industries. They can not only meet the diverse needs of different industries for evaporation processes but also help enterprises improve production efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and ensure product quality, making them one of the indispensable key equipment in modern industrial production."
