Core Structural Design
External Heating Circulation Design
The triple-effect concentrator adopts external heating circulation, which ensures short heating time. Consequently, it is suitable for processing heat-sensitive and multi-variety materials. Besides, its special structural design prevents material foaming and enables automatic foam elimination.
Materials are concentrated in a sealed environment without foaming. Additionally, automatic drainage replaces manual operation, which effectively reduces labor intensity for operators.
Key Performance Advantages
High Evaporation Capacity and Speed
The evaporation capacity of the triple-effect concentrator is more than four times that of the national standard concentrator. At the same time, its energy consumption ratio is 68% lower, making it highly efficient and energy-saving.
Energy Saving Efficiency
Taking the SJZP-1000 model as an example, it can save a considerable amount of energy annually. Specifically, it saves 5,200 tons of steam, 110,000 kWh of electricity, and 130,000 tons of water each year.
The annual cost saving is approximately RMB 200,000–300,000. Moreover, the equipment investment can be recovered within one year through these energy savings, bringing quick economic benefits.
High Concentration Ratio
The concentration specific gravity can reach 1.35 without additional paste collection steps. This streamlines the industrial process and shortens concentration time significantly.
Materials can be processed on the same day, which reduces contamination risks. Furthermore, the design prevents material loss, improves paste yield, and ensures stable pharmaceutical quality.
Improved Working Conditions
The equipment features stable operation and easy cleaning, requiring minimal manual labor. In fact, it can be operated by a single person. Additionally, it has no leakage, spillage, or dripping, creating a tidy production environment conducive to civilized production.
Comprehensive Utilization
The entire equipment is made of stainless steel. Importantly, the condensate water from the first-effect heating chamber can be used as single-distilled water, realizing resource reuse.
Wide Application
It is suitable for concentrating liquid materials in industries such as traditional Chinese medicine, western medicine, food, chemicals, and light industry. Specifically, it meets the concentration requirements for heat-sensitive Chinese medicine, western medicine, and food materials.
Equipment Composition and Structure Details
This equipment is composed of a first-effect heating chamber, evaporation chamber, second-effect heating chamber, evaporation chamber, third-effect heating chamber, evaporation chamber, steam-water separators, and a cooler. Moreover, the whole set of equipment is made of high-quality stainless steel.
Heating Chamber
The heating chamber (see Drawings 01, 04, 09) has a tubular bundle structure inside, with layered thermal insulation. Additionally, the upper manhole cover is used for cleaning the tube bundles.
The first-effect heating chamber (01) is equipped with a steam pressure gauge and a safety valve. These components work together to ensure production safety.
Evaporation Chamber
The evaporation chamber (see Drawings 02, 05, 10) has a double-layer structure for heat insulation. The front is equipped with a sight glass, allowing operators to observe the evaporation of the material liquid.
There is a manhole at the top for cleaning the interior when changing varieties. Furthermore, it is equipped with a vacuum gauge and a thermometer, enabling operators to easily observe and master the internal vacuum degree and material liquid temperature.
Steam-Water Separators and Cooler
The steam-water separators (see Drawings 26, 19) separate the residual steam and condensate discharged from the heating chambers. On the other hand, the cooler adopts a double-tube bundle structure for cooling, with a lower water receiver to collect and discharge the condensed water.
