DESCRIPTION
A single stage, hot water heated, vertical tube, natural circulation, Vacuum Evaporator System designed for outdoor operation under 90 MPH wind loads, zone 3 seismic stresses and possible atmospheric icing conditions.

APPLICATION
The separation and concentration from 4.0 wt.% - 40 wt.% of a relatively pure, single salt stream of (NH4)2SO4 for local sale, and the recovery of associated water of dilution for internal process recycle, from a waste stream generated by a semiconductor manufacturing waste water treatment process.

OVERVIEW
A highly customized, fully automatic, semi-continuous, DDPS Vacuum Evaporator System. This unit features Push-button Start / Stop, PLC Controlled, continuous separation and discharge of water and periodic, batch discharge of concentrated salt brine at a prescribed density. The careful selection of glass reinforced plastic, reactive metals and alloys combined with a heavy duty, 304 Stainless Steel structure assure long and trouble free chemical service in a tough, north coast, outdoor environment.
