Apparatus for evaporating foaming liquids

摘要

The invention relates to an apparatus for evaporating foaming liquids by means of mechanical vapour compression using an evaporator in which a horizontal tube bundle is arranged as heat exchanger and which is furnished in the evaporation region with a flow obstacle. The invention is characterised in that the evaporator (21) has a parallelepipedal shape having a rectangular cross section whose longer side (22) lies in the direction of the evaporation path (27) and in the evaporation region at least two baffle plates (24-26) are arranged. <IMAGE>
