Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of evaporation crystallizer technology, specifically to an externally heated reverse circulation evaporation crystallizer. Background Technology
[0002] Evaporation crystallization, a crucial separation and purification method in numerous industries such as chemical, pharmaceutical, and food processing, aims to achieve supersaturation of the solution by evaporating a portion of the solvent, thereby precipitating the solute. In current industrial applications, multi-effect evaporation crystallization and mechanical vapor recompression (MVR) evaporation crystallization technologies are widely used. However, both of these technologies are based on the principle of boiling evaporation, requiring the material solution to be heated to a boiling state. During this process, due to the large amount of solvent vaporization, a significant amount of heating steam is inevitably consumed, resulting in high energy consumption and placing higher demands on equipment materials, thus increasing equipment investment and operating costs.
[0003] Traditional evaporation crystallization equipment, while allowing for some solid precipitation during operation, suffers from significant limitations in effectively controlling crystal grain classification, making it difficult to meet the demands of producing high-quality crystalline products. Natural circulation methods are inefficient, and the flow rate of the solution within the tubes is difficult to precisely control, easily leading to crystal deposition and scaling, affecting heat transfer efficiency and equipment stability. Furthermore, internally heated forced circulation (standard) evaporation crystallizers, with their heating chamber located inside the equipment, present significant maintenance and cleaning challenges when handling corrosive or easily scaling materials. They also have limitations in precisely controlling the crystal growth environment, hindering the production of uniformly sized, high-quality crystalline products. Utility Model Content
