[0026] As Figure 1 shown, a combined thin film evaporator at least includes a primary thin film evaporator 1 and a secondary thin film evaporator 2 for evaporating materials. The primary thin film evaporator 1 is connected above the secondary thin film evaporator 2.

[0027] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 The primary thin film evaporator 1 is selected as a vertical evaporator.

[0028] The primary thin film evaporator 1 comprises a first evaporation cylinder 11. The first evaporation cylinder 11 is provided with a first jacket 12. The first jacket 12 is provided with a jacket inlet and a jacket outlet for the flow of heat medium. The inner side of the first jacket 12 is provided with a distributor 13. The first evaporation cylinder 11 is provided with a first feed inlet 14 above the distributor 13 and a first discharge outlet 15 below the distributor 13. A vacuum outlet 16 is located above the first feed inlet.

[0029] The material enters the first evaporation cylinder 11 from the first feed inlet 14, and the heat medium enters the jacket. Under the action of the top distributor 13, the material is distributed to the inner wall of the evaporation cylinder, and under the joint action of the temperature and vacuum in the first evaporation cylinder 11 (the principle of pressure reduction evaporation), part of the material is vaporized, and then the vaporized material becomes gaseous and flows to the vacuum outlet 16. The material that has not been vaporized and is still in liquid state flows to the first discharge outlet 15, thereby achieving separation of evaporation and concentration.

[0030] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 The secondary thin film evaporator 2 is selected as a horizontal evaporator.

[0031] The secondary thin film evaporator 2 comprises a second evaporation cylinder 21, and the second evaporation cylinder 21 is provided with a second jacket 22. The second jacket 22 is provided with a jacket inlet and a jacket outlet for the flow of heat medium. The inner side of the second jacket 22 is provided with a screw type paddle 23. The second evaporation cylinder 21 is provided with a second feed inlet 24 above and a second discharge outlet 25 below. The second feed inlet 24 is connected to the first discharge outlet 15.

[0032] The material that flows out of the first discharge outlet 15 and is still in liquid state without being vaporized enters the second evaporation cylinder 21 through the second feed inlet 24. Under the joint action of the temperature and vacuum in the second evaporation cylinder 21 (the principle of pressure reduction evaporation), part of the material is vaporized, and then the vaporized material becomes gaseous and flows to the vacuum outlet 16 through the second feed inlet 24, the first discharge outlet 15 and the first evaporation cylinder 11. The material that has not been vaporized and is still in liquid, solid or semi-solid state remains in the second evaporation cylinder 21 and is forced to be transported to the second discharge outlet 25 by the screw type paddle 23, thereby achieving separation of evaporation and concentration.

[0033] The first evaporation cylinder 11 and the second evaporation cylinder 21 are provided with a sight glass 17, which can be used to observe the actual running condition of the evaporation cylinder at any time.

[0034] The vacuum outlet 16 of the primary thin film evaporator 1 is used as a concentrated outlet of all evaporated materials, so that the evaporated materials and concentrated materials can be collected separately.

[0035] In order to meet the demand of low organic solvent residue, a plurality of secondary thin film evaporators can be connected behind the primary thin film evaporator, so that multi-stage evaporation and concentration of the materials can be realized, the organic solvent residue is further reduced, and the evaporation and concentration of high-viscosity, solid and semi-solid materials can be met.

[0036] In conclusion, the combined thin film evaporator can separate the evaporated materials and concentrated materials through multi-stage evaporation, reduce the organic solvent residue, and meet the evaporation and concentration of different materials.

[0037] According to the ideal embodiments of the utility model, the related personnel can make various changes and modifications without deviating from the technical thought of the utility model. The technical scope of the utility model is not limited to the content in the specification, and must be determined by the scope of claims.
