    This presentation discusses the horizontal tube evaporator. It provides an overview of the principle, construction, working mechanism, uses, advantages, and disadvantages. The horizontal tube evaporator uses steam passed through horizontal tubes immersed in the liquid to be evaporated to transfer heat. The concentrated liquid is collected from the bottom while the vapor escapes from the top. It is best suited for non-viscous liquids and low cost with easy operation and installation. However, it has a small capacity and cannot be easily cleaned.

    Original Description:

    It is a type of evaporator.

    Evaporation

    A type of vaporization that


    occurs on the surface of a
    liquid as it changes into the gas
    phase.
    But Practically
    The removal of solvent from
    the solution by boiling the
    liquor in a suitable vessel and
    withdrawing the vapor, leaving
    a concentrated liquid in the
    vessel.

    EVAPORATORS Made with by
    Evaporators

    Equipment used for the evaporation is known as Evaporators.


    It can be used for separating liquid chemicals as well as to salvage
    solvents.
    It is used the manufacture of biological products, bulk drugs,
    preservation of long-term activity or stabilization of enzymes etc.
    Food and beverage industries also require these to produce products.

    HORIZONTAL TUBE
    EVAPORATOR

    Made with by 7
    Principle

    In horizontal tube evaporator, steam is passed through the horizontal


    tubes, which are immersed in a pool of liquid to be evaporated. Heat
    transfer takes place through the tubes and the liquid outside the tubes
    gets heated. The solvent evaporates and escapes from the top of the
    evaporator. The concentrated liquid is collected from the bottom.

    8
    Construction

    It consists of
    • A large cylindrical body with conical
    shaped top and bottom. Made up of
    cast iron/plate steel. Body ranges from
    1.8-2.4 m.
    • A steam compartment at lower part
    with an inlet at one end a vent for non-
    condensed gases on the other end.

    9
    Construction

    • In the steam compartment 6-8 stainless


    steel horizontal tubes are placed. Width
    of it is usually half the diameter of the
    body.
    • An inlet for feed.
    • One outlet for vapor at the top of the
    dome.
    • An outlet for thick liquid at the centre of
    the conical bottom of the body.

    10
    Working mechanism

    Feed introduction
    • Until the steam compartment is immersed

    Steam introduction

    Conduction of heat to liquid through tubes.


    • Occurs due to temperature gradient

    Heat absorption by feed and solvent evaporation

    Removal of evaporated vapor through outlet at the


    top and collection of thick liquid from the bottom
    11
    Uses

    It is best suited for non viscous solution that do not deposit scales or
    crystals on evaporation. E.g. Cascara extract.
    It is used in the preparation of distilled water for boiler feed.
    Also used in pulp and paper industry.
    Evaporation of sugar, syrups, beef extract, phosphoric acid, zinc
    chloride etc.

    12
    Advantages

    Relatively low
    cost per unit of
    heating surface.

    Easy to
    Easy to install.
    operate.

    Require less
    It requires low
    space for
    headroom.
    installation.

    Both batch and Suitable for


    continuous liquids that
    operation is doesn’t
    possible. crystallize.
    13
    Disadvantages

    It’s not suitable for viscous liquids of poor circulation.

    Due to its small size its capacity is also less than others.

    It can’t be easily cleaned by mechanical means.

    It can’t be used in case of scaling or salting liquids.
