WFE based Plant (wiped film Evaporator)
At Radox Engineering, we specialize in designing and manufacturing Wiped Film Evaporators (WFE) , offering efficient solutions for the evaporation of heat-sensitive, viscous, or complex materials. The WFE is an advanced heat transfer device that ensures high evaporation rates with minimal energy consumption, making it ideal for industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and petrochemicals.
Specifications of Wiped Film Evaporator (WFE) by Radox Engineering:-
Working Principle – Wiped Film Evaporation:
Continuous Thin Film Evaporation: In a wiped film evaporator, a thin layer of liquid is continuously spread over the heated surface by rotating wipers. The thin film ensures efficient heat transfer, which aids in quick evaporation of the volatile components.
High-Speed Wiping Action: The rotating wiper blades scrape the liquid film from the surface of the heated evaporator tubes, continuously renewing the thin layer of liquid for efficient evaporation. This prevents the formation of foam or boiling, making it ideal for heat-sensitive or viscous liquids.
Short Residence Time: The high-speed wiping action ensures minimal contact time of the liquid with the heating surface, making it suitable for materials that may degrade at higher temperatures.
Efficiency and Energy Conservation:
IOptimized Heat Transfer: The wiped film evaporator maximizes heat transfer while preventing overheating or degradation of heat-sensitive materials, ensuring both energy efficiency and product quality.
Low Energy Consumption: Due to the continuous thin film and high heat transfer rates, the WFE operates with minimal energy use, reducing operational costs while maintaining high performance.Material Compatibility:
Viscous and Heat-Sensitive Liquids: Wiped film evaporators are ideal for handling materials with high viscosity, as well as those that are heat-sensitive, such as oils, polymers, and certain food-grade products.
High-Viscosity Fluids: The system can handle a wide range of fluids, including heavy oils, concentrated solutions, syrups, and other high-viscosity materials that would be challenging to process in traditional evaporators.
Design and Construction:
Stainless Steel Construction*: The WFE system is constructed with high-quality stainless steel or corrosion-resistant materials to ensure durability and reliability, especially when processing aggressive chemicals or food-grade products.
Modular Design: The WFE can be designed to meet the specific requirements of the application, with modular units that allow for easy scalability and maintenance.
Compact Size: Despite its high throughput, the wiped film evaporator has a compact design, making it ideal for industries with limited space or requiring efficient use of floor space.
The Wiped Film Evaporator (WFE) from *Radox Engineering is an advanced, efficient, and energy-saving solution for the evaporation of heat-sensitive and viscous liquids. With its high efficiency, minimal energy consumption, and versatile applications, it is the preferred choice for industries seeking reliable and high-performance evaporation technology.
