Techncal description
Conditioned feed water is pumped into the sump of flash tank A01 and flows together with the existing hold-up to the corosys natural circulation evaporator E01. In the vaporizer E01 with optimized double tubes which are required for ultrapure steam, the water is partially vaporized and flows as a gas/liquid mixture back into the separator A01. The partial evaporation creates a airlift pump effect, thus accelerating the water flow and ensuring hygienic flow conditions.
In the separator A01 the gas-liquid mixture separates into the liquid stream, which flows downwards into the separator sump and is further pumped around in a targeted manner, and the vapour stream flowing upwards. At the top of the separator a mist eliminator specifically dimensioned for the application is provided, which ensures the separation of any entrained liquid droplets for the required vapour quality.
In addition, a periodic partial draining of the sump is provided to avoid accumulation of impurities and thus ensure steam quality.
Optional sampling according to EN285 is possible.
