Specification
Evaporation is a process for concentrating a solution by vaporizing a part or all of the solvent. In most of the cases the solvent is water. The Pan Evaporator set-up is designed to study the fundamentals of evaporation process. The set-up consists of a jacketed pan evaporator made of stainless steel and an electrically heated steam generator of suitable capacity. To evaporate the solution in pan, steam is allowed to enter in the jacket using a control valve. Steam is produced in a steam generator, made of Stainless Steel. Steam generator is complete with heater, feed valve, vent valve, steam control valve, pressure gauge, safety valve, drain, level indicator and Digital Temperature controller. A digital temperature indicator with temperature sensor is also provided to observe temperature during experimentation. Condensate is collected from steam trap for energy measurement. Tilting is done by means of a rotating wheel to empty the pan.
