Evaporation Technology
Often used in combination with the Falling Film Evaporator. Shell-and-tube heat exchanger or plate heat exchanger as calandria. With flash/vessel separator arranged above the calandria and circulation pump.
The Forced Circulation Evaporator is often used in combination with the Falling Film Evaporator as high concentrator or as crystallization evaporator for saline solutions.
Especially adequate for highly viscous liquids or with a high tendency to fouling as well as a high concentration step in multiple-effect evaporation plants. GEA offers different design options depending on product specifications and customer requirements.
The liquid is circulated through the calandria by means of a circulation pump, where it is superheated at an elevated pressure, higher than its normal boiling pressure. By entering the separator, the pressure in the liquid is rapidly reduced, resulting in some of the liquid being flashed or rapidly boiled off.
Since liquid circulation is maintained, the flow velocity in the tubes and the liquid temperature can be controlled to suit the product requirements independently of the pre-selected temperature difference.
Best suited for temperature-sensitive products and liquids with small amounts of solids and going up to high concentrations

Das Leben von Michele Schneider nahm eine unerwartete Wendung, als sie ihren Ehemann Virlei heiratete, einen jungen, ambitionierten Milchviehhalter, und gemeinsam mit ihm den Milchviehbetrieb „Fazenda Inovação Schneider Milk“ in Brasilien gründete. Als Quereinsteigerin in der Milchviehhaltung entdeckte Michele rasch ihre Leidenschaft für die Tiere und die tägliche Arbeit auf dem Hof. Mit dieser Begeisterung wuchs jedoch auch ihr Arbeitspensum.
