The Pharmastill modular construction offers a wide range of configurations allowing optimum payback times. Standard models range from 60 to 22.000 lts/h output.
Rapid start up: the distillate is produced after only few minutes after the switch on / Energy Saving: the best performances in terms of energy saving, thanks to an extremely accurate design of the condenser/evaporators and heat recovery system / High Flexibility: the production capacity can be varied by up to 80% without any plant modification / Unique purification system: gravitational purification principle for a better guarantee of distillate purity / Simple and clean mechanical construction: baffle – free decontamination chamber – no welding. Granting the best inspectability and, minimized corrosion risk, for the longest expected life of equipment / Extremely limited maintenance: no moving parts, expansion joints or mechanical seals. Compact construction and low weight: little extra head room needed for dismounting and inspection up to ten effects, for a maximum energetical efficiency.
The Pharmastill HPS is based on the ingenious combination of the “Thin Falling Film” and Multi-stage principles. The first effect is fed by an external energy source (Industrial Steam or Electrical energy). The pure steam generated in each effect and the non-evaporated water are fed to the subsequent one, operating at lower pressure; pure steam is condensed into WFI by vaporizing a new portion of feed water. Pharmastill is provided with one pre-heater for each column recovering the sensible heat of the distillate, and two final exchangers.
