Evaporation is a fundamental process in chemical engineering, food processing, and pharmaceutical industries, used to concentrate solutions by removing volatile solvents. To study energy efficiency, heat transfer, and process optimization, advanced laboratory setups are essential. The Double Effect Evaporator offered by Scilabex.com and Scilabstore is designed for precise experimentation, combining high-quality construction with reliable performance. This apparatus is suitable for academic, research, and industrial applications, with PAN India and international delivery.

Product Overview

The Double Effect Evaporator is specifically designed to concentrate a non-volatile solute from a solution by vaporizing the required amount of solvent, usually water. By using two evaporators in series, this setup improves energy efficiency, reducing steam consumption compared to a single-effect system.

Key features of the apparatus include:

• Two Evaporators in Series: Stainless steel tubes with jackets and accumulators.

• Steam Supply: Provided from an electrically heated steam generator for controlled evaporation.

• Condensate Collection: Steam traps ensure accurate measurement and energy efficiency.

• Vapour Condensation: Volatile solvent vapours from the first evaporator are condensed in a shell & tube condenser and recycled.

• Durable Construction: Entire setup made from stainless steel and metal, ensuring longevity.

This setup allows students and researchers to understand process efficiency, heat transfer, and concentration of solutions in a controlled laboratory environment.

Working Principle

The Double Effect Evaporator works on the principle of sequential evaporation using two stages, improving thermal efficiency:

1. Feed Preparation: Dilute solution is fed into the first evaporator.

2. First Evaporation Stage: Steam is supplied to the jacketed first evaporator. The solution is concentrated, and vaporized solvent is generated.

3. Condensate Collection: Condensate from the steam is collected through a steam trap.

4. Vapor Reuse: Vapors produced from the first evaporator are supplied to the second evaporator to drive further evaporation, minimizing steam consumption.

5. Second Evaporation Stage: Steam from the first evaporator vaporizes more solvent in the second evaporator.

6. Condensation & Recovery: Volatile solvent vapors are condensed using a shell & tube condenser, while non-volatile solutes are collected in accumulators and can be recycled.

This dual-stage evaporation allows for efficient use of energy, reducing operational costs while maintaining high product quality.

Applications

The Double Effect Evaporator is used in various applications:

• Chemical Engineering Labs: Study of evaporation, heat transfer, and solution concentration.
