In a Rising Film/Forced Circulation Evaporator liquid feed enters from the bottom of steam heated tubes. The parallel movement of liquid and vapour along tube surface imparts effective water evaporation from the liquid feed. This type of evaporator is ideal for liquids which attain high viscosity or have fouling tendency. The liquid feed is pumped into the steam heated tubes at an entering velocity of 2-6 m/s from the bottom. The liquid is superheated as the static head is reduced during flow from the heater to the vapour separator and it flashes into a mixture of vapour and liquid. Liquid returns to the Pump inlet, where it is recirculated. Vapour leaves from the top of the effects. This type of evaporator is ideal for concentration of viscous liquids with high specific gravity or that tend to form scaling.
Our Falling Film Evaporator system allows for indirect heating of feed through Shell and Tube operation designs. By passing the feed in a laminar flow, allowing moderate viscosity based feed elements to be treated as well, the FFE apparatus raises the temperature, relying on gravity assisted flow of materials. At SSP, we calibrate the design of the system for maximum steam efficiency allowing for system set-up without need for condenser in multi-effect systems. FFE systems are available with both TVR and MVR for efficient steam consumption and minimal denaturing of products.
Scrapped Surface/Thin Film Evaporator is designed for evaporation of highly viscous and sticky products, which cannot be otherwise evaporated. This type of evaporators have been specially designed to provide high degree of agitation, effecting heat transfer as well as scrapping the walls of the evaporator to prevent deposition and subsequent charring of the product.
The agitated thin film evaporator is well suited for concentration of viscous and heat sensitive liquids such as gelatin, antibiotics, fruit juices, and solvent mix etc. The thin film evaporator reduces fouling and liquid residence time in the evaporator. In the vertical agitated thin film evaporator feed liquid is feed at the top of evaporator and is uniformly distributed in the form of thin film by the wiper blades on vertical cylindrical heat transfer area, inside the unit. Evaporation of water / solvent takes place as the thin film moves down the heat transfer area.

In direct heat Rotary Dryers a continuous feed of wet particulate material is dried by contact with heated air, while being transported along the interior of a rotating cylinder / rotating shell acting as the conveying device and stirrer. SSP offers Rotary Dryers in co-current (Parallel) and counter-current operation. In the former the wet material is exposed to the hottest air which enables heat sensitive or sticky material to be dried successfully. In counter-current operation, dried material is exposed to the hottest air helping to achieve very low moisture content. The hot gas may enter at a very high temperature as high as 1,600 deg. C.
Steam tube dryer is one of the indirect heated rotary dryers, which contains rotating shell, rows of steam tubes arranged in concentric circles and extended throughout the length of the dryer. Steam tubes are designed to transfer heat from steam to the material being dried. This is one of the most energy efficient dryers. The tubes and radial flights together serve to agitate the material and to provide required residence time.
Spin Flash Dryer is ideal for drying of wet cake, slurry, paste which is normally difficult to dry in other dryers. The material is fed by screw feeder through a variable speed drive into the vertical drying chamber where it is heated by hot air and at the same time disintegrated by a specially designed disintegrator. The heating of air may be direct or indirect depending upon the application. The dry powder is collected through cyclone separator / bag filter or with combination of both.
This type of dryer is used for converting concentrated material to solid/semi solid form. This is designed with vacuum system / without vacuum system. Solvents/water is collected through condenser. Feed is pumped to heat exchanger where it is scrapped/agitated through series of multiple blades on the inner surface of a vertical shell and shell is heated by steam. Due to vigorous agitation the heat transfer is fast and slurry is converted to solid/semi-solid form.
The Paddle Dryer system is highly efficient because the heat transfer is by conduction, mechanically agitated, indirect heat transfer equipment that add or remove heat from a process mass. They are used for indirect drying, heating, cooling of pastes, cakes, powders, and granules. The dryer consist of dual counter-rotating shafts with unique intermeshing wedge shape paddles produce intimate mixing and optimize heat transfer.
