Luwa SMS GmbH LN-0200 - Vertical Thin Film Evaporator consist of a
cylindrical, vertically-arranged body with heating jacket. A rotor
inside the body is equipped with rows of pendulum blades along the
full length of the dryer., Special thin-film evaporator designed for
dairy service, discharge system, vapor pipe, condenser, and drives. It
was in used as a pilot plant on a dairy service until early 2001 and
afterwards converted to a 2 square metre cheese base processor with
discharge system and ran till 2025 in a Casein plant in a dairy
factory in New Zealand., The vertical thin film dryers operate as
follows: The wet feed is spread by the pendulum blades in a thin layer
onto the heated wall. During this process, the volatile components
evaporate continuously out of the product layer at high evaporation
rates. The pendulum blades are designed with a minimum gap to the
heated wall to prevent fouling deposits on the heating surface, which
would reduce performance. The product enters the dryer at the top.
Evaporation starts immediately after the boiling point has been
reached. First, solids are formed in the slurry zone. The material is
then dried to powder under continued shearing by the pendulum blades.
The final solid product is discharged by gravity at the bottom of the
dryer via a suitable air lock. The operation principle and the design
of the vertical thin film dryers offer unique advantages: From liquid
to solid in one step, little product hold-up, short residence time,
vacuum and atmospheric operation and high performance even with
fouling substances. Typical applicatons: drying of salts such as
chlorides, bromides, sulphates, carbonates, xanthates, phospates and
neutralisation salts, wastewater treatment, silane recovery, silicone
drying or glycerine recovery., Heating surface: 21,5 Sq. Ft. Max.
