Self-cleaning action.

Flubex. . .

• Continuous self-cleaning action

avoid scaling.

• No Frequent C.I.P.

• Less generation & disposal

problem of C.I.P. Effluent

• No standby unit is required

• Lesser floor space

Multi Effect Evaporation

Thermal Vapor Recompression

www.praj.net

• Vapors are compressed by means of steam jet ejector.

• Steam Jet Ejector is used to raise the temperature and pressure of

generated vapors from first effect of evaporator

• Motive steam mixes with the part of vapors generated from evaporator.

• It increase overall energy efficiency of

Agitated Thin Film Dryer (ATFD)

Agitated Thin Film Dryer (ATFD)

ATFD consists of two major assemblies:

• A Heated body (Shell with surrounding Jacket)

• A close clearance or zero clearance rotor with blades.

During ATFD Operation 3 zones are formed:

• Preheating zone - Product reaches to boiling point.

• Slurry zone - Concentration of solids increases. Many

products during this phase tend to form agglomerates which

are crushed by the pendulum blades.

• Powder Zone – Dry powder (90% w/w solids)

Use for amorphous salts which can not be separated in Pusher Centrifuge

How ATFD Works ?

• Fluid enters tangentially above the heated zone

• Feed Distribution by using distribution ring

mounted on rotor

• Blades helps in spreading fluid over the entire

heated wall and forms a thin film.

• Turbulent condition developed by the rotor blades

generates optimal heat flux and hence rapid

evaporation

• Evaporated vapors are condensed in a surface

• Aqueous non-azeotropic: Miscible with water and forming

no azotrop

• Other non-azeotropic: Miscible with each other and

forming no azotrop

• Heterogeneous azeotropic : Not Miscible with each other

and forming azotrop

• Aqueous azeotropic: Miscible with water and forming

Separation Techniques

© Praj Industries Ltd www.praj.net 45

Pressure swing distillation:

Altering volatility by taking advantage of solvent properties at variable

pressures

Azeotropic distillation:

Addition of additional agent called entrainer which alter the volatility

of one of the solvent

Chemical action separation:

Addition of chemical which is having affinity for one of the

constituent.

Distillation using a dissolved salt:

Salts are added to increase the boiling point elevation of solvent

and decrease the volatality of solvent in which it is dissolved.
