Evaporator
In a time when environmental protection is a universal and undeniable necessity, the use of environmentally friendly processes is a valuable opportunity. During production, a significant portion of energy and raw materials (about 80 percent) is wasted. However, there are simple yet exceptional methods to generate electricity from natural sources such as the sun, wind, and water. Moreover, with new technologies, wastewater can be treated to recover water, an essential element for human life.
Eco Tecno Italy, since 1984, has been providing efficient solutions for wastewater treatment and water recovery. With the experience of installing over 3,000 units worldwide, they are a committed partner in offering solutions tailored to the nature of the wastewater. Eco Tecno’s mission is to bring motivation and enthusiasm to people and nature, leading to better environmental protection.
Iran Board Electronics, as the exclusive representative of Eco Tecno in Iran, possesses the technical knowledge and sufficient experience in implementing wastewater neutralization and recovery projects. With a skilled team, they are ready to collaborate in the design, installation, and commissioning of all wastewater neutralization projects.
Product Introduction:
This device is equipped with an internal heat exchanger and capable of producing 750-10 liters of distilled water per hour at a low temperature (35°C), with the aim of water and raw material recovery or ensuring compliance with allowable pollutant levels before discharge to the sewage system. This device can be customized according to customer needs and specific operational requirements. Additionally, it includes special models for chromium-containing wastewater, constructed using titanium and acid-resistant resins.
Main Applications:
This device is specially designed for industrial applications such as electroplating, direct casting, quenching process wastewater in heat treatments, pharmaceuticals, related chemical industries, food and beverage products, and in general, all wastewater containing toxic substances.
General Specifications of the Device:
Steam tank made of A-316 / 316 L stainless steel, optionally coated with acid-resistant ceramic. It also features easy-access separability with necessary service accesses, a glass door, and an internal lighting system.
Heat exchanger located at the top of the tank for condensing the generated steam.
Vacuum conditions provided by a pump.
Automatic input/output system.
Anti-scaling system with bottom sensors.
Automatic cleaning system using water or chemicals.
Comprehensive automatic control system (PLC) and corresponding control panel manufactured by Siemens Germany.
Operating Basis: Natural, ideal, and efficient processes at the peak of simplicity.
Process Principles: In Eco Tecno’s proposed solutions for industrial wastewater management, three key indicators—economic efficiency, environmental compatibility, and the use of advanced technology—are optimally met. The vacuum evaporator operates fully automatically, with the ability to control its performance online. The menu interfaces are designed in a very simple language to facilitate easy communication with operators. Devices produced by this company incorporate some of the most creative and efficient processes for industrial wastewater treatment. Thanks to their simple and efficient structure, these devices provide a clean, reliable method with multi-purpose capabilities, along with low maintenance costs, and in many cases, the ability to achieve 100% water recovery (ZLD). It’s worth noting that Eco Tecno’s technology is registered as the best available technology (BAT) in the European Union.
Today, the use of evaporators is the most effective and economical method in industrial wastewater treatment, with the following main features and governing principles:
Evaporation in vacuum chambers at low temperatures using heat pumps (with abundant capabilities and easy installation).
Multi-stage vacuum evaporators with low energy consumption for high-volume wastewater.
Condensation of steam at high temperatures, compact dimensions, and low energy consumption.
Crystallization of valuable elements (special freezers for recovering metal salts).
Materials Used in the Construction of the Devices:
The highest quality alloy steels are used to ensure optimal performance in harsh corrosive conditions, resulting in excellent performance and high resistance of the devices. The use of the latest generation of equipment and technology increases the utilization of these devices and guarantees their long-term operation. Materials used in the construction of these devices include stainless steel 316, stainless steel L 316, titanium, hastelloy, silicon carbide, incoloy, and nickel alloys.
After-Sales Services:
Eco Tecno guarantees high-quality and prompt services for the entire operational life of the installed device. The average lifespan of the produced evaporators exceeds twenty years, which can be extended with regular maintenance programs. The company’s services include installation, commissioning, training, providing process-related technical consultations, on-site services, online performance assessment systems, and remote servicing.
Applications: "An excellent solution for all industries."
