The key components of a bromine recovery system and how they work

Image
Bromine is a highly reactive and volatile chemical element that is widely used in various industrial applications. It is used in the manufacturing of pesticides, pharmaceuticals, flame retardants, and water purification agents. However, the recovery of bromine from industrial effluent is a challenging task due to its volatile nature and toxic properties. A bromine recovery system is, therefore, essential to recover and reuse the bromine present in industrial wastewater. In this blog, we will discuss the key components of a bromine recovery system and how they work. Bromine Recovery System Components: Reactor Tank: The first component of a bromine recovery system is the reactor tank, where the industrial effluent is first collected and mixed with a reducing agent, such as sodium bisulfite or sodium sulfite. This chemical reaction converts the bromine present in the effluent into a non-volatile form that can be easily recovered. Bromine Scrubber: The next component of the bromine recov...

Different Types of Evaporators and Their Applications

Evaporation is an essential process used in various industries, including food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and petrochemicals. Evaporators are used to separate the solvent or liquid from the solute or solid. This process involves heating the solution until the liquid evaporates and leaves behind the solid or solute. Different types of evaporators are used in different industries depending on the requirements. In this blog, we will discuss the different types of evaporators and their applications, with a particular focus on wiped film evaporators and thin film evaporators. Falling Film Evaporators Falling film evaporators are commonly used in the food processing and dairy industries. The solution is fed into the top of the evaporator, where it flows down the inside of a vertical tube in a thin film. The tube is heated, causing the solvent to evaporate, leaving behind the concentrated solute. Falling film evaporators are efficient and can handle large volumes of liquid. Ris...
