Double Four-effect Evaporator for Dairy Product Evaporation With CIP System
Product Spotlights
As a leading manufacturer in environmental and food processing technology, Qingdao Conqinphi Environmental Technology Group is proud to present our advanced Double Four-effect Evaporator, engineered specifically for the dairy industry. With our foundation built in 2015 and a sprawling manufacturing facility, we combine extensive R&D expertise with robust production capabilities to deliver high-efficiency evaporation solutions. This system is designed to address the critical needs of dairy processors for energy conservation, product quality preservation, and operational hygiene. Our evaporator integrates a sophisticated Clean-in-Place (CIP) system, ensuring stringent sanitation standards are met effortlessly, making it an intelligent investment for modern dairy plants aiming to optimize their concentration processes.
The core of this system lies in its double four-effect falling film evaporation technology. This design essentially doubles the processing capacity and thermal efficiency within a compact footprint. The product flows as a thin film over heated tubes, allowing for rapid evaporation at lower temperatures, which is crucial for heat-sensitive dairy products like milk and whey. This gentle processing helps retain vital proteins, vitamins, and the natural flavor profile of the dairy concentrate.
- Superior Energy Efficiency: The multi-effect configuration reuses vapor from one effect as the heating medium for the next, dramatically reducing steam consumption. This can lead to significant operational cost savings on energy.
- Built-in CIP System: Hygiene is paramount in dairy processing. The integrated CIP system allows for automated, thorough cleaning and sterilization of the entire evaporator circuit without disassembly, minimizing downtime and labor costs while ensuring product safety.
- High Product Quality: Low-temperature, short-time evaporation minimizes thermal damage, preserving the nutritional value, solubility, and color of the final dairy powder or concentrate.
- Robust Construction: Fabricated from high-quality food-grade stainless steel (options include 304 or 316L), the equipment offers excellent corrosion resistance, durability, and meets international hygiene standards.
- Automated Operation: A user-friendly PLC control panel enables precise control over parameters like temperature, flow rate, vacuum level, and concentration density, ensuring consistent batch-to-batch results and easy operation.
- Scalable and Customizable: We understand that every dairy plant has unique needs. The system's capacity and specific configurations can be tailored to match your production volume and product type requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What does "double four-effect" mean in this evaporator?
A1: It refers to a configuration that essentially combines two four-effect evaporators in an integrated design. This allows for higher processing capacity and even greater energy savings compared to a standard single four-effect unit, as heat is recovered and reused more efficiently across multiple stages.
Q2: How does the integrated CIP system benefit my operation?
A2: The Clean-in-Place system automates the cleaning and sanitizing process. It eliminates the need for manual disassembly and cleaning, which reduces labor, minimizes production downtime between batches, and ensures consistent, thorough hygiene critical for dairy safety standards.
Q3: What types of dairy products can this evaporator process?
A3: This system is versatile and suitable for concentrating various dairy liquids, including whole milk, skim milk, whey (sweet or acid), lactose solutions, and other dairy by-products, preparing them for further drying into powder.
Q4: What is the typical steam consumption for this type of evaporator?
A4: Multi-effect evaporators are known for low specific steam consumption. While exact figures depend on the feed and desired concentration, a four-effect system can typically use approximately 0.25 kg of steam per kg of water evaporated, offering significant savings over single-effect units.
Q5: Can the system be customized for a specific capacity?
A5: Yes, absolutely. As a manufacturer, we design and build systems tailored to client requirements. The evaporation capacity, material specifications (like 304 vs. 316L stainless steel), and certain auxiliary components can be customized upon request.
Q6: What kind of after-sales support do you provide?
A6: We offer comprehensive support including detailed installation guidance, operator training, technical documentation, and supply of spare parts. Our service team is available to assist with commissioning and troubleshooting.
Q7: How does the falling film design protect product quality?
A7: In a falling film evaporator, the product flows quickly as a thin film, requiring less residence time at evaporation temperature. This gentle, low-temperature process minimizes thermal degradation, helping to preserve proteins, vitamins, and flavor in the sensitive dairy concentrate.
Q8: What are the main factors affecting the final price of the system?
A8: The key factors are the required evaporation capacity (water removal rate), the choice of materials (e.g., standard 304 or higher-grade 316L stainless steel), the level of automation, and the scope of customization. We provide detailed quotations based on your specific project parameters.
