Evaporation is a fundamental process in chemical engineering, food processing, and laboratory research, where a solution is concentrated by removing part of the solvent, usually water. The Single Effect Evaporator from Scilabex.com and Scilabstore is designed to study this principle with high precision, making it ideal for educational, research, and industrial laboratories. This equipment is trusted globally, with PAN India and international delivery, and comes with a 1-year warranty.
Product Overview
The Single Effect Evaporator is specifically designed to concentrate a solution by vaporizing a part of the solvent, producing a thickened solution or liquor. The setup consists of:
-
Stainless steel tubes surrounded by a stainless steel jacket.
-
An accumulator for collecting concentrated solution.
-
Steam supplied from a steam generator to heat the solution.
-
Condensate collection via a steam trap for energy measurement.
-
A shell & tube type condenser to condense vapors of volatile solvent.
-
Recycling of the remaining non-volatile solute back to the evaporator for maximum efficiency.
The apparatus is highly robust, durable, and user-friendly, ensuring consistent and reliable results for laboratory experiments.

Working Principle
The Single Effect Evaporator operates on the principle of steam-induced evaporation:
-
Dilute solution feeding: The solution enters the stainless steel tubes.
-
Steam heating: Steam from a generator is supplied to the shell surrounding the tubes to transfer heat efficiently.
-
Concentration: The solvent evaporates, producing a concentrated solution.
-
Condensation: The vapors are condensed in a shell & tube condenser for recovery.
-
Recycle of non-volatile solute: Any residual solute is returned to the evaporator to ensure minimal wastage.
This process allows accurate determination of heat transfer, material balance, and efficiency, providing both practical and theoretical insights into evaporation studies.
Applications
The Single Effect Evaporator is widely used in:
-
Educational Institutions: Demonstrates fundamental principles of evaporation to students.
-
Research Laboratories: Enables accurate determination of material and heat balance, evaporation efficiency, and overall heat transfer coefficient.
-
Industrial R&D: Helps design processes in food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries.
-
Comparative Studies: Can be compared with double effect or multi-effect evaporators for efficiency analysis.
This equipment bridges the gap between theoretical understanding and practical application, making it invaluable for research and industrial training.
