MVR evaporation system

Summary:
MVR evaporator is the abbreviation of Mechanical Vapor Recompression. MVR re-uses the secondary steam energy produced by its own, thereby reducing the demand for external energy. Early in the 1960s, Germany and France have successfully applied this technology in chemical, pharmaceutical, paper, sewage treatment, seawater desalination and other industries. Its working process is compressing low temperature steam by the compressor, raising temperature and pressure, increasing enthalpy and entering into heat transfers for condensation, to make full use of steam latent heat. In addition to drive start, the whole evaporation process needs no steam.
In the multi-effect evaporation process, the secondary steam of the first effect of the evaporator cannot directly used as the self-effectiveness heat source, only can be used as the secondary or subsidiary effective heat sources. If it is used as the self-effectiveness heat source, additional energy must be supplied to it, so as to raise the temperature (pressure). The steam jet pump can only compression partial of the secondary steam, however MVR evaporator can compress all the secondary steam in the evaporator.
The solution is in an evaporation tank, and it can circulate in the heating pipe through the material circulation pump. Initial steam is heated from outside of the pipe via fresh steam; the solution is heated to be boiling to generate the secondary steam, which is sucked again by the steam compressor. After pressurization, the secondary steam’s temperature increases, and the steam is used as the heat source to enter the heat exchanger for circulation evaporation. After normal start up, the steam compressor inhales the secondary steam, which is pressurized and changed into heating steam, so circulation evaporation continuously go on. The evaporated moisture eventually become condensed water and then be discharged.
Main features of MVR evaporation system:
.Save energy consumption.
.In addition to preheating, the normal work needs no steam, to reduce environmental pressure.
.Need no cooling system, so that the cooling water can be saved.
.Compared with multi-effectiveness evaporation, it has features, such as simple process, compact equipment and small floor space.
.Compared with the traditional evaporation system, the heat exchange temperature difference is small, and the heat exchanging area is large.
.The product is evaporated mildly due to the low temperature difference designed for the system; therefore, concentrated liquid is not easy to occur high temperature metamorphism, coking and so on.
Main uses of MVR evaporation system:
- .Traditional Chinese medicine concentration (can be evaporated water, ethanol, methanol, etc.).
- .Sugar, milk, juice, beverage concentrate.
- .Salt wastewater concentration and crystallization (NaCl, Na2SO4, NH4Cl, etc.) salt crystallization.
- .Papermaking wastewater concentration.

Relying on our company for many years the production of vacuum pump Roots experience, and combined with the requirements of MVR vapor compression, we developed a Roots series RVC type steam compressor, the main features are as follows:
- .Pump cavity is without oil, to avoid the oil vapor pollution evaporation system.
- .The vibration is small and the noise is small.
- .Mechanical friction loss is small, so the driving power is small.
- .Easy to maintain and repair, low cost, high life expectancy.
- .In order to improve the characteristics of the compressed water vapor and organic solvent, the emulsification of the oil in the bearing cavity and the corrosion of the pump cavity are solved.
- .Unique overheating eliminates design. By connecting the saturated steam return pipeline, so that roots compressor compressed heat is greatly reduced and the pump rotor cavity, pump body, end caps of temperature equilibrium, to avoid the due to impact by thermal expansion unevenness in the pump, pump seal burned, the pump was stuck phenomenon.
- .Because of our company's unique heat elimination design, no need to spray liquid from the pump to cool down, so as to avoid the liquid caused by the pump cavitation damage.
- .In order to improve the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger, the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger is improved by increasing the flow rate of the main heat exchanger by the flow rate of the flow.
- .In order to solve the special design of various solvents, the RVC Roots compressor is safe and efficient in the compression of various solvents.

Roots compressor and centrifugal compressor are mainly used in MVR evaporation system. The main features are as follows:
|
Centrifugal compressor |
|
Compress feature |
The flow rate of Roots compressor is not sensitive to the pressure difference, which is a constant flow type compressor. |
Centrifugal compressor flow and pressure, compression ratio and so on has a great relationship, is a constant pressure type compressor |
Operating noise |
The operation noise of the medium. Roots compressor is related to the design of the compressor, the manufacturing precision of the equipment, the design of the pressure difference of the system and so on, because of its low speed, the operating noise is low frequency noise. |
Because the centrifugal compressor is a single axle design, the gear noise of the Roots compressor is reduced, because of its high speed, and the running noise is high frequency noise. |
Speed |
Lower. Generally 500~3000rpm |
Higher. Generally 10000~20000rpm |
Evaporation capacity |
Smaller. Generally 10kg/h~10000kg/h |
Larger. Generally 1000kg/h~50000kg/h |
Scope of work |
Because roots compressor compression ratio is very high, so even when MVR evaporation at very low temperatures can still obtain very high compression efficiency. Steam on operating temperature range for: 10 to 120 ℃. Roots compressor after optimization can be used for methanol, ethanol and other organic solvents MVR evaporation. |
Under the lower temperature of MVR evaporation compression efficiency is low, so can only be used in high temperature evaporation conditions. The general steam on operating temperature range: 60 to 120 ℃ centrifugal compressors of solvent MVR evaporation and application is still in the development stage. |
Running stability |
Because of the low speed, stable operation, no surge |
Because of high speed, high dynamic balance requirements, the need to avoid the surge during the operation. |
Security |
Due to the low speed, so it is safe to operate. In the compressed gas, the gas can be used in stainless steel and the way to increase the PTFE coating to eliminate internal security risks may arise. |
Due to the high speed, high speed operation of the impeller has a great centrifugal force, the strength of the parts of the impeller is very high; so that the safety of its operation is poor. |
Compressor efficiency |
Roots compressor, although parts more loss of some power, but because of its low speed, gas power loss is small, so the efficiency is high. The efficiency is 60~80% |
High speed centrifugal compressor caused a certain loss of power, its efficiency is generally 60~85% |
Seal features |
Due to low speed, the use of ordinary seals and mechanical seals to meet the requirements, long life, long replacement cycle, low maintenance costs. |
Special high speed seal, short life, short replacement cycle and high maintenance cost are required. |
Flow adjustment |
The flow of the compressor is proportional to the speed of the compressor, which can be easily controlled by controlling the speed of the evaporation. |
The flow rate is nonlinear, and it is difficult to control the evaporation. |
Over heat elimination |
Through the method of reflux cooling to eliminate the heat, no need to spray liquid from the entrance. |
Need to spray liquid from the compressor inlet to eliminate the compressed heat. |
Material selection |
Roots compressor can choose a variety of materials: A cast iron nickel plated B stainless steel C PTFE stainless steel |
Centrifugal compressor is generally stainless steel and titanium materials, etc. |
Maintenance and repair cost |
Pump oil, seals, bearings, etc. are ordinary parts, maintenance, low maintenance costs |
Seals, bearings and so on are special parts, maintenance, high maintenance costs |

Note:
1. In addition to the special explanation, the table data doesn't consider the impact of boiling point rising, such as the material is more complex or correlative data is uncertain; it is recommended to contact with my company for MVR evaporation tests to determine the key parameters.
2. If it needs to design a reasonable waste heat exchanger to recovering waste heat, the maintenance of the necessary steam (or other heat media) consumption is very little or needs no external heat source.
3. If it needs to design an external forced circulation pump, the power consumed is calculated additionally.
