Thin film evaporator is a special liquid-liquid separation technology. Under high vacuum, the mean free path of vapor molecules is greater than the distance between the evaporation surface and the condensation surface, so that the evaporation rate of each component in the feed liquid can be utilized. difference to separate liquid mixtures.


One: The application field of thin film evaporator:


1. Fine chemical industry, such as the purification of aromatic oil, the purification of polymer intermediates, the extraction of lanolin, etc.
2. Pharmaceutical field: such as extraction of natural vitamin AE, etc., preparation of derivatives of amino acids and glucose, etc.
3. Food industry: such as refined fish oil, oil deacidification, refined high-carbon alcohol, separation of mixed oils, etc.
4. Other fields: petroleum industry, daily chemistry, environmental protection, etc.


Two: The characteristics of the thin film evaporator:


1. Operate at a temperature far lower than the boiling point of the material, and the residence time of the material is short, which is beneficial to the separation of high boiling point, heat-sensitive and easily oxidizable materials.
2. Effectively remove substances in the liquid such as organic solvents, odors, etc. It is a very effective method for the precipitation of liquid after solvent extraction.
3. Products can be selectively evaporated to remove other impurities, and more than two substances can be separated at the same time through multi-stage separation.
4. Distillation has a high degree of vacuum, which can reach below the standard pa, and a high degree of vacuum can be obtained inside. Molecular distillation is usually operated at a very low pressure, so the material is not easy to be oxidized and damaged.
5. The distilled liquid film is thin, the heat transfer efficiency is high, and the film thickness is small.
6. The degree of separation is higher. Molecular distillation can separate substances that are not easy to separate.
7. There is no boiling and bubbling phenomenon. Molecular distillation is free evaporation on the surface of the liquid layer. It is carried out under low pressure and there is no dissolved air in the liquid. Therefore, the entire liquid cannot be boiled during the distillation process, and there is no bubbling phenomenon.
8. Provide a variety of specifications for customers to choose from, suitable for small-scale experiments and pilot-scale experiments for customers. If a larger evaporation area is required, it can be customized according to customer requirements.
10. The feed tank is optional to realize the preheating function, and the preheating temperature can be adjusted.
11. Each interface is sealed with fluorine rubber gasket, which has good air tightness. If the customer needs corrosion resistance, it can be replaced with PTFE.

Thin-film distillation and short-path distillation are two commonly used separation techniques that are widely used in the separation of volatile components of silicone oils and resins. This article will explain in detail the principles and applications of these two technologies and their application in the separation of volatile components of silicone oil and resin.


Abstract: Oil deacidification is an important step in food processing, which aims to remove free fatty acids in oil and improve its quality and stability. Traditional deacidification methods have some limitations, such as low efficiency, high energy consumption, and loss of nutrients. In recent years, molecular distillation technology has gradually attracted attention as a new deacidification method. This article will introduce the application of molecular distillation in oil deacidification, including the principle, operation process and advantages, and focus on the outstanding advantages of Aishengke in molecular distillation technology.


Vitamins are products that are closely related to people's lives, and have become one of the main bulk products in the international pharmaceutical and health care products market. The amount of vitamin E is the largest, followed by vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin D and so on. With the growth of economy and the improvement of people's living standards, the demand for vitamin products will further increase, and people's requirements for their quality and grade will also further increase. Therefore, as an important separation technology in the production of many vitamins, molecular Distillation technology will also play an increasingly important role in the vitamin industry.


Glyceryl monostearate (GMS), abbreviated as monoglyceride, is produced from natural vegetable oils and fats. The active ingredient is purified by molecular distillation technology to more than 90%, also known as molecular distillation monoglyceride. It is the most widely used food Additives, safe to use in the production and processing of food, medicine, plastics, etc., account for more than half of the emulsifier consumption in the market.


The principle of molecular distillation is to make use of the different degrees of affinity between different molecules. By controlling the conditions such as temperature and pressure, the mixture begins to vaporize. Different components in the vapor form liquids in the condenser and are separated according to their boiling points. This distillation method not only has a good separation effect, but also can be repeatedly separated and purified, and is widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical and other fields.


Molecular distillation is a common chemical method used to separate and purify compounds. In the pharmaceutical industry, molecular distillation is widely used in pharmaceutical purification. This article will focus on the application of molecular distillation in pharmaceutical purification and provide some specific examples.


Laboratory vacuum distillation equipment has undergone significant advancements in recent years, driven by the need for higher efficiency, improved safety, and enhanced user experience.
