MVR driven evaporators in bioprocesses<\/strong><\/p>\n Evaporation of water to increase the concentration of biobased intermediate or final products constitutes a standard unit operation in a number of bioprocesses.<\/p>\n Depending on the boiling point elevation of the concentrate as well as the type of evaporator solutions with single-stage or multi-stage compression are selected.<\/p>\n Hereafter, a selection of typical solutions of MVR driven evaporators within the biobased industry.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n Application | Evaporation<\/p>\n Boiling point elevation (concentrate)<\/p>\n [K]<\/th>\n Number of MVR stages<\/p>\n<\/th>\n Specific electricity demand<\/p>\n [kWh \/ t]<\/th>\n COP<\/p>\n [-]<\/p>\n<\/th>\n Reduction of energy costs<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n Glucose Corn stillage evaporator<\/p>\n<\/td>\n 1 + 1 (50%)<\/p>\n +<\/p>\n 1 (25%)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n Citric acid Citric acid crystallizer<\/p>\n<\/td>\n *) Compared to a quadruple evaporator with thermal recompression, steam costs 30\u20ac\/t, electricity costs 0.08\u20ac\/kWh<\/p>\n **) Compared to life steam heating, steam costs 30\u20ac\/t, electricity costs 0.08\u20ac\/kwH<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" MVR in evaporation Based on the principle of a heat pump, MVR systems use electricity and a fan or a turbo-compressor to run the evaporation process.
