The spray evaporation technology is a technology of atomizing liquid material and quickly contacting with hot air to realize drying and desalination. The technology has been widely used in the past food, pharmaceutical and other industries, and is now creatively applied to the field of high-salinity wastewater treatment. The principle of the technology is to atomize the material liquid to increase its specific surface area, and then contact with hot air to realize the drying and desalination process through phase change. The spray evaporation process mainly consists of four stages: the material liquid is atomized by a rotary atomizer, the material mist is mixed and flowed with the evaporation medium (usually hot air), the material mist is evaporated in the hot air, and finally the product is separated and recovered.
