Utilizing a feedstock of Crude Fatty Acids from splitting Fats and Oils, they are distilled at very low temperatures and in a vacuum. In the design the evaporation is with the addition of live steam and partial pressure reduction, and not on the heating surface, thereby enabling the vacuum to become fully effective. The vapor is condensed on the surface condensers and the distillate that is withdrawn is free of low-volatile components.
A few highlights of our design process are –
1. The Pre-Cut Column allows us to handle the worst possible feedstocks ., and still produce a high grade Distilled Fatty Acid for Soap Noodles.
2. Optimizes the recovery of heat and produces 3 bar steam for use.
3. Reduces the thermal stress on the product by the use of Falling Film Evaporators.
4. Our system has a structured packed column for efficient distillation and separation of odors, colors and fractions.
5. The use of the internal heavy end sections results in the best product color.
6.The Reboiler for the residue makes for the least amount of Fatty Acid loss
