Engineering Overview & Design Highlights
The JMEF Distillation Vessel and Solvent Recovery System is engineered for high-efficiency separation of multi-component solvent mixtures, solvent purification, and chemical fractionation. Fabricated in Vatva GIDC, Ahmedabad, the package includes the bottom boiling kettle (reboiler), packed or trayed fractionation column, reflux distributor, overhead shell & tube condenser, and vacuum receivers.
Working Principle & Mechanical Operation
The liquid mixture in the reboiler vessel is vaporized by steam or thermic fluid circulated through a limpet coil or heating jacket. The rising vapor enters the vertical distillation column packed with structured wire mesh or raschig rings where counter-current mass transfer occurs against falling reflux liquid. High-purity vapor exits the column top and condenses in an overhead heat exchanger into receiving tanks.
Salient Features & Technical Advantages
-
High solvent recovery rate up to 98% purity, drastically slashing chemical raw material expenditure.
-
Choice of structured wire gauze packing, ceramic Raschig rings, or bubble-cap distillation trays.
-
Complete skid assembly: Reboiler kettle, column, primary condenser, secondary vent cooler, and vacuum receiver.
-
Engineered for atmospheric or high-vacuum operation to prevent thermal degradation of heat-sensitive compounds.
-
Equipped with RTD PT-100 temperature sensors, reflux ratio controllers, and sight flow indicators.
