  • INTRODUCTION
  • PARAMETER
A falling film evaporator is an advanced thermal separation system widely used in food, pharmaceutical, dairy, and chemical industries. It works by evenly distributing liquid as a thin film along heated surfaces, allowing rapid evaporation at lower temperatures. This gentle process preserves product quality while ensuring high efficiency and energy savings, making it one of the most reliable solutions for large-scale concentration needs.

Product Description: Falling Film Evaporator


Zhangjiagang Mic Machinery specializes in manufacturing high-efficiency falling film evaporator systems, designed to deliver exceptional performance in concentration and evaporation applications across various industries. As leading falling film evaporator manufacturers, we combine advanced engineering with practical design to create equipment that maximizes productivity while minimizing operational costs.

Key Features and Benefits


Our falling film evaporator systems incorporate innovative technology to ensure optimal performance:

  • High Efficiency Design: Achieves superior heat transfer coefficients through uniform liquid distribution

  • Energy Saving Operation: Utilizes gravity-fed film technology to minimize energy consumption

  • Gentle Processing: Maintains product quality through low-temperature evaporation

  • Versatile Applications: Suitable for heat-sensitive products including fruit juices, dairy, and pharmaceuticals

  • Automated Control: Integrated PLC systems for precise process monitoring and adjustment

Understanding the Falling Film Evaporator Working Principle


The falling film evaporator principle relies on liquid distribution over vertical heat exchange surfaces:

  1. Liquid Distribution: Pre-heated liquid is evenly distributed across the top tube sheet

  2. Gravity Flow: Liquid flows downward as a thin film under gravity's influence

  3. Heat Transfer: Steam or hot fluid in the shell side transfers heat through tube walls

  4. Vapor Separation: Concentrated liquid and vapor are separated at the bottom

The evaporator falling film design ensures minimal product residence time, making it ideal for heat-sensitive materials.
