Multi-effect evaporator (MEE): By using steam from the previous effect as the heating source for the subsequent effect, cascade utilization of energy is achieved, thereby achieving the goal of energy conservation. The multi-effect evaporator system is mainly powered by steam, supplemented by electricity. It features high evaporation capacity, low operating costs, mature and reliable processes, and wide adaptability to materials, especially in situations requiring treatment of large volumes of wastewater, significant evaporation of water or with inadequate electricity supply. GeeKingTech, as one of the leading multiple effect evaporator manufacturers in China, provides a wider range of multiple effect evaporator types and solutions to customers.
SPECIFICATION OF MULTIPLE-EFFECT EVAPORATOR
Factors to consider in the design of multi effect evaporator:
Factors for consideration: In designing a multi-effect evaporation system, many factors must be carefully considered, such as the types of multi effect evaporator or heat exchanger, forced or natural circulation, feed arrangement, boiling point rise, heat transfer coefficient, scaling, pipeline size and arrangement.
Parameters for consideration: The most important parameter to consider in the design of a multiple effect evaporator system is the characteristics of the feed liquid, which plays a major role in determining the efficiency. Before selecting the most suitable multiple evaporation system design, it is necessary to analyze the feed characteristics, discharge quality requirements, and required evaporation standards.
The industrial evaporator supplier GeeKingTech helps companies around the world find the best solutions to water and wastewater problems by manufacturing and designing evaporators of single effect, multiple effects, triple effects, and even more effects.
BENEFITS OF MULTIPLE EVAPORATOR
When it comes to industrial evaporation, the advantages of multiple effect evaporator (MEE) are unmatched. The advantages of multiple effect evaporator (MEE) are significant for various industrial applications. Here are some key advantages of single effect evaporator systems:

Technological maturity and innovation: Full self-control and continuous feeding and discharging, etc can be achieved.
Working of Multiple Effect Evaporator Principle
Multi-effect evaporation system is composed of multiple single-effect evaporators through traditional energy-saving evaporation technologies. That is, the secondary steam evaporated from the previous evaporator is introduced into the next evaporator as heating steam and condenses it into distilled water in the next evaporator, and so on. The effectiveness depends on comprehensive consideration of the nature of the materials, equipment investment, and operating costs.
