Our Schmidt evaporization systems with SIGMASTAR® Climbing-film Plate Evaporators are used in the food industry, in the organic and chemical industry, and for wastewater treatment.

Advantages of the rising-film SIGMASTAR® include

• Superior product distribution due to the thermo-siphon principle
• Extremely short residence time, to guarantee a gentle treatment of the product
• Low pressure losses across the tubes, a benefit of the short tube length
• High concentrations and viscosities are possible due to the high vapor velocity in a rising film
• Clearly defined product flow path. There is no chance of local over-concentration
• Lower cost heat transfer area, compared to other evaporation systems
• No components are welded to the plate surface that can cause corrosion and build up of fibrous materials
• Flexible design – capacity changes can be made easily by adding or removing plates
