Distillation Systems/Equipment

Distillation Equipment for Chemical Industry, Pharmaceutical Industry, Food & Sugar Industry

Distillation System is manufactured using stainless steel and M.S. Distillation Plants are generally used in chemical, Sugar, pharmaceutical, Food & Beverage industry. Distillation plants are designed in different specification and capacities.

Distillation is the separation of liquid mixtures depending on the difference in the volatility of the components. The greater the difference in volatilities there will be, the easier the separation it will be. Vapour flows up the column and liquid counter-currently down the column. The vapour and liquid are brought into contact on trays (sieve, bubble cap, etc) or packing (random, structured, etc). Part of the condensate from the condenser is returned to the top of the column to provide liquid flow above the feed point (reflux), and part of the liquid from the base of the column is vaporised in the re-boiler and returned to provide the vapour flow.

Distillation columns

Distillation system like Distillation columns are fabricated for Petrochemical, Chemicals industries in various material of construction like carbon steel, stainless steel, duplex steel, inconel, monel, titanium etc. Distillation columns are designed to achieve highly effective distillation process.

Distillation columns are applicable for various industries and are of two types:
1) Batch columns where the feed to the column is provided batch wise and it is only after the completion of the first batch, second batch is introduced.
2) Continuous columns where a continuous feed stream is provided to the distillation column and high outputs are achieved.

Distillation kettle

Distillation Kettle is designed in various capacities. Distillation Kettle is applied in various processing industries such as food industry, chemical industry and some other industries. Distillation Kettle is provided with jackets, limpet coils and tube bundles depending upon the applications.

Condensers

Condensers are included in stainless steel condensers and mild steel condensers. These condensers are optimally designed for efficient performance.

These systems come with the steam condenser, which is a type of air-cooled heat exchanger. This heat exchanger has features like 35° sloped bundles to reduce the footprint, and 100 percent welded connections to avoid leakage.

Condensers find application in the following industries
Chemical Industry
Fertilizers Industry
Food and dairy Industry
Petrochemical Industry
Pharmaceutical Industry
Pulp and paper Industry
