The Alfa Laval AlfaVap rising film evaporator concentrates low-to-medium fouling liquids as well as highly viscous liquids across a broad range of applications and industries. Robust, versatile and economical, it is energy efficient, easy to operate and maintain, requiring 50-70% less height than conventional shell-and-tube evaporators. Its compact size makes it easy to install in existing facilities.
More compact, faster start-ups, higher thermal efficiency, and better product quality than shell-and-tube evaporators
- Versatile, economical evaporator for concentration of a various products across a broad range of industries
- Improved product quality due to fast start-up and shut-down times, high heat transfer efficiency, and short residence time – perfect for heat-sensitiv
- High energy efficiency due to lower steam use with multiple effects and thermal and/or mechanical vapour recompression units
- More uptime, less maintenance with minimal fouling due to self-cleaning effect created high turbulence and high shear rate
- Compact, space-saving footprint that is 50-70% shorter in height than shell-and-tube evaporators, reducing installation and service time and costs
Maximize uptime with the Alfa Laval AlfaVap rising film plate evaporator. This cost-effective climbing film evaporator concentrates process liquids that contain dissolved solids, easily handling higher media concentrations and viscosities than tubular evaporators.
Install AlfaVap rising film evaporator as a complete evaporation effect or a cost-efficient booster unit to increase existing evaporator capacity using the existing structures and controls. Its low height makes it easy to install on a single floor with a few or no pumps. This cuts installation costs.
Typical applications of a rising film evaporator include sugar refinery, sweetener, animal and plant-based protein, bioethanol and caustic evaporation duties.
