The Tech Inc. Falling-Film Solvent Recovery Skid (100 L/h) (model TI-FFE-100) recovers ethanol and other solvents continuously from extracts and mother liquors. The feed runs as a thin film down heated stainless tubes under vacuum, so the solvent boils off in seconds at low temperature and heat-sensitive extracts are not damaged. It is the next step up when batch rotary evaporators can no longer keep pace with production.
Main components
- Vertical falling-film evaporator with liquid distributor and heating jacket
- Vapour separator and shell-and-tube condenser
- Vacuum system with condensate receiver
- Feed, concentrate and recovered-solvent pumps and tanks
