glass wiped film distillation
Glass wiped film distillation is a cutting-edge separation technology used primarily in chemical and pharmaceutical industries. It operates by spreading a thin film of liquid across a heated glass surface, where evaporation occurs rapidly due to the large surface area exposed to heat. The main functions of this process include the purification, concentration, and recovery of heat-sensitive or high-purity liquids. Technological features of glass wiped film distillation include a unique wiping mechanism that ensures uniform film thickness and optimal heat transfer, as well as a modular design that allows for scalability and flexibility. This method is highly valued in applications where gentle handling of the product is critical, such as in the processing of essential oils, pharmaceutical actives, and food-grade extracts.
