Convap Scraped Surface Evaporator
Convap® is a single-wall, two-phase scraped-surface evaporator (SSE) with high efficiency for high-viscosity and high-fouling material. It has been specially designed to effectively concentrate products to extremely high solids levels.
How Convap® improves evaporation efficiency
- Convap can process fluids to essentially zero moisture content.
- Continuous scraping action and high turbulence ensure impressive heat transfer coefficient when concentrating high solids material.
- Advanced design allows Convap to handle high viscosity and high fouling materials that exceed the limitations of other evaporation solutions.
- Vacuum conditions preserve valuable colour, flavour and nutritive product components.
- Vertical design ensures a small footprint when limited space is available.
Convap® evaporators efficiently process and dry various products, particularly those that have been pre-concentrated and have become too viscous to handle. These systems can achieve up to 99% total solids concentration while maintaining superior heat transfer performance.
With continuous scraping technology, Convap® prevents fouling and ensures optimal heat transfer. The high-temperature differential allows efficient evaporation without compromising product integrity, making it especially beneficial for heat-sensitive materials.
