wiped film distillation
Wiped film distillation is a cutting-edge technique used for the separation of heat-sensitive materials, providing an efficient and gentle method for purifying liquids. At its core, this technology operates by spreading a thin film of liquid over a heated surface, where evaporation occurs quickly and the vapors are then condensed to yield the purified product. The main functions include concentration, purification, and recovery of high-value products. Technological features such as a continuous feed system, precise temperature control, and the use of a wiper mechanism to maintain an even film ensure high yields and consistent quality. Applications span across pharmaceuticals, food processing, and specialty chemicals, where maintaining the integrity of the product is paramount.
