The specific structure is as follows: a high-temperature steam injection pipe 3 is connected to one side of the evaporation chamber 1, a steam discharge pipe 4 is connected to the other side of the evaporation chamber 1, a gas-liquid separator 5 is installed on the top of the evaporation chamber 1, and a secondary steam pipe 6 is connected to the upper end of the gas-liquid separator 5. The steam discharge pipe 4 and the secondary steam pipe 6 are both connected to the steam compressor 7. The exhaust end of the steam compressor 7 is connected to a heating silo 8. One end of the heating silo 8 is connected to the air inlet of the liquid medicine heater 2, and the exhaust port of the liquid medicine heater 2 is connected to the air inlet of the liquid medicine preheater 9.

A forced circulation component is arranged outside the evaporation chamber 1 to improve the existing liquid medicine concentration and purification equipment. The secondary steam generated in the concentration process is compressed and heated with the primary steam after heat exchange with the heat source, and then further heated by the heating silo 8 to increase the steam temperature to form high-temperature circulating steam. The high-temperature circulating steam enters the liquid medicine heater 2 to heat the liquid medicine, and the steam after heat exchange enters the liquid medicine preheater 9 to preheat the raw materials, so as to maximize the use of the heat in the steam and improve the overall efficiency of the equipment. In addition, a forced circulation component is added outside the evaporation chamber 1 to force the liquid medicine to circulate, further increase the flow rate of the liquid medicine, increase the heat exchange contact area, and improve the concentration and purification operation efficiency.
