Abstract

1,020,594. Large capacity evaporators. CHICAGO BRIDGE & IRON CO. Jan. 11, 1963 [April 11, 1962], No. 1312/63. Heading BIB. A large evaporator 10, e.g. of a capacity of 50,000-2,000,000 gallons, for crystallizing solutions by adiabatic evaporation under reduced pressure, comprises a hemispherical top portion 11 welded to a bottom conical portion 12, the top portion being provided with a vapour outlet, and the bottom portion being provided with a feed inlet 13 just below the surface of the liquid which is maintained at the point of maximum cross-section. The feed inlet is preferably aligned to deliver the feed in a non-radial direction. Bottom portion 12 is also provided with a slurry outlet 18, a drain outlet, and a recirculation system for the solution in the evaporator, comprising outlet 14, pump 15, heat exchanger 15, and pipe 17. Solution entering evaporator 10 via inlet 13 undergoes flash evaporation and becomes cooled. Any crystals that are formed fall to the bottom of the evaporator and are removed as a slurry from outlet 18. The cooled mother liquor is withdrawn via outlet 14 and is recirculated to mix with the inlet feed, being heated in heat exchanger 16 during the recirculation. The vapour formed in evaporator 10 passes via the entrainment separator 19 into the heat exchanger 22 where it heats the mother liquor being recirculated in a second evaporator 20 maintained at a pressure below the pressure in evaporator 10 by the action of steam jet ejector 30. The construction and operation of evaporator 20 are similar to that of evaporator 10. An internal baffle 120, Fig. 4 (not shown), may be provided inside the bottom section 112 of the evaporator to divide it into crystallization zone 115 and thickening zone 119 the latter having an exposed surface area of 5-50% of the total exposed surface area. In operation, the crystal slurry formed in zone 115 is withdrawn from outlet 117 and is passed via line 118 into zone 119. Thickening of the slurry occurs in zone 119, the thickened slurry being removed via outlet 123 and the clarified mother liquor being removed via overflow 122. Also described is an evaporator wherein the internal baffle is provided with an aperture at its lowest point so that clarification of the mother liquor is achieved without external recirculation of the crystal slurry. These evaporators can be used in multiple effect for separating mixtures of sodium borate and sodium sulphate by fractional crystallization (see Division C1).
