Processing Factor of Evaporation 1. Concentration in Liquid Liquid feed to an evaporator is relative dilute, so its viscosity is low, similar to that of water, and relatively high heat-transfer coefficient are obtained. As evaporation proceeds, the solution may become very concentrated and quite viscous, causing the heat-transfer coefficient to drop markedly. Adequate circulation and/or turbulent must be present to keep the coefficient from becoming too low.

2. Solubility As solutions are heated and the concentration of the dilute or salt increases the solubility limit of the material in solution may be exceeded and crystals may form. This may limit the maximum concentration in solution which can be obtained by evaporation.

3. Temperature sensitivity of materials • Many products, especially food and other biological materials may be temperature sensitive and degrade materials, temperature-at higher temperatures or after prolonged heating. • Such products include pharmaceutical products; food products such as milk, orange juice, and vegetable extracts; and fine organic chemicals. • The amount of degradation is a function of the temperature and the length of time.

4. Foaming or frothing • In some cases materials composed of caustic solutions, food solutions such as skim milk and some fatty acid solution form or froth during boiling • This form accompanies the vapor coming out of the evaporator and entrainment losses occur.

5. Pressure and temperature • The boiling point of the solution is related to the pressure of the system. The higher the operating pressure of the evaporator, the higher the temperature at boiling. As the concentration of the dissolved material in solution increases by evaporation, the temperature of boiling may rise. • This phenomenon is called boiling-point rise or elevation To keep the temperatures low in heat-sensitive materials, it is often necessary to operate under 1 atm pressure, that is, under vacuum

6. Scale deposition and materials of construction • Some solutions deposit solid materials called scale on the heating surfaces These could be formed by decomposition products or by decreases in solubility. • The result is that the overall heat-transfer coefficient decreases, and the evaporator must eventually be cleaned. • The materials used in construction of the evaporator should be chosen to minimize corrosion.

Multiple Effect Evaporator Forward-feed multiple-effect evaporators • If the feed to the first effect is near the boiling point at the pressure in the first effect 1 kg of steam will evaporate almost 1 kg of water. • The first effect operates at a temperature that is high enough that the evaporated water serves as the heating medium to the second effect. • Here, again, almost another kg of water is evaporated, which can then be used as the heating medium to the third effect.

• As a very rough approximation, almost 3 kg of water will be evaporated for 1 kg of steam in a three effect three-evaporator. • Hence, the steam economy, which is kg vapor evaporated/kg steam used, is increased. • This also holds approximately for more than three effects. However, the increased steam economy of a multiple-effect evaporator is gained at the expense of the original first cost of these evaporators.

• Figure, the fresh feed is added to the first effect and flows to the next in the same direction as the vapor flow. • This method of operation is used when the feed is hot or when the final concentrated product might be damaged at high temperatures. • The boiling temperatures decrease from effect to effect. This means that if the first effect is at P1 = 1 atm abs pressure, the last effect will be under vacuum at pressure P3.

Backward-feed multiple-effect evaporators • The fresh feed enters the last and coldest effect and continues on until the concentrated product leaves the first effect • This method of reverse feed is advantageous when the feed is cold since a smaller amount of fresh cold, liquid must be heated to the higher temperatures in the second and first effects.

• However, liquid pumps must be used in each effect, since the flow is from low to high pressure. • This reverse-feed method is also used when the concentrated product is highly viscous. The high temperatures in the early effects reduce the viscosity and give reasonable heat-transfer coefficients.

Parallel-feed multiple-effect evaporators • Parallel feed in multiple-effect evaporators involves the adding of fresh feed and withdrawal of concentrated product from each effect. • The vapor from each effect is still used to heat the next effect. This method of operation is mainly used when the feed is almost saturated and solid crystals are the product, as in the evaporation of brine to make salt.

Boiling Point Rise • In most cases, the thermal properties of the solution being evaporated may differ considerably from those of water. • The concentrations of the solutions are high enough that heat capacity and boiling point are quite different from those for water. • For strong solutions of dissolved solutes the boiling point rise due to the solutions in the solution usually cannot be applied.

• However, a useful empirical law known as Dühring’s rule can be applied. • According to this rule, a straight line is obtained if the boiling point of a solution in 0C or 0F is plotted against the boiling point of pure water at the same pressure for a given concentration at different pressure. A different straight line is obtained for each given concentration.
