Product Profile of Short Path [molecular] Distillation Units
In the year 1990, Techno Force Solutions was started to manufacture process equipment based on thin-film technology. The company supplies a wide range of evaporators, dryers and short path [or molecular] distillation units based on Thin Film Technology. Techno Force Solutions also supply conventional tubular evaporators of rising film, falling film or forced circulation type and counter-current liquid- liquid extractors.
Techno Force Solutions offers Short Path [Molecular] Distillation Units. The products are used for distillation of heat sensitive products under vacuum up to 0.001 mbar. With special vacuum systems, piping and instrumentation Skid mounted units are provided. the products are applicable in Pharmaceuticals like bulk drugs, natural and synthetic vitamins, esters; Epoxy resins, plasticizers, and stabilizers; Fish oil, fatty acids and derivatives, glycerides, tocopherol; Fine Chemicals, silicone oils, and higher alcohols; Natural extracts; Petrochemicals like base oil, lube oil, coal and tar.
The product has some features like,
Operating pressure as low as 0.001 mbar.
Materials can be boiled at significantly reduced temperatures at such low pressures.
Operating temperature up to 350 ?C [650 ?F]. With low pressure and high heating temperature, many of the hard to distill products can be successfully processed.
Residence time of a few seconds - important for heat sensitive products.
Suitable for viscous products.
Excellent turn down capability.
Low product holdup - good for hazardous materials.
Low power requirement.
