Multiple-effect Evaporation Plants

 

Energy efficiency with high evaporation rates

 

In multi-stage evaporation plants, the vapor from the liquid medium is used to heat the subsequent stages. This significantly reduces the use of primary steam, allowing the plant to operate in a cost- and energy-efficient manner.

In-house production

 

GIG Karasek manufactures its key components and special high-pressure equipment in Austria. In Gloggnitz, we focus on our falling-film evaporators and lamella production

Functional principle

While the first evaporation stage is heated with live steam, vapor from the previous stage is used to heat the heating surfaces in the subsequent stages. As the number of effects increases, the specific live steam input gets reduced.

The number of stages usually depends on the specified temperature effects. The temperature sensitivity of the medium, the maximum available heating steam pressure, and the cooling water temperature are further important parameters.
