Efficient High-Capacity Evaporation & Concentration for Viscous & Fouling Fluids
The Buflovak Forced Circulation Evaporator (FCE) is engineered to efficiently concentrate liquids, slurries, and heat-sensitive solutions by recirculating fluid through a tube bundle at controlled velocity and temperature. This design minimizes fouling and scaling while enabling rapid heat transfer under vacuum, making it ideal for high-viscosity and particulate feeds found in chemical, pharmaceutical, food ingredient, and specialty material processes. Built with industrial-grade construction and customizable configurations, Buflovak FCE systems deliver reliable evaporation performance with high throughput and reduced maintenance demands.
Key Features & Benefits
- Recirculating forced circulation: Keeps fluid moving uniformly through the heated bundle to prevent fouling and ensure consistent heat transfer.
- High viscosity handling: Designed for feeds that are difficult to evaporate using conventional falling film or natural circulation designs.
- Vacuum operation: Enables low-temperature evaporation for heat-sensitive fluids and reduced thermal degradation.
- Custom configurations: Available in various tube materials, surface finishes, and bundle designs to match process chemistries.
- Industrial-grade construction: Heavy-duty fabrication for continuous service in harsh process environments.
- Improved throughput: Optimized circulation and heat transfer deliver faster evaporation rates with high operational reliability.
