HIGH
FLEXIBILITY : The STMC Pha Distiller offer, thanks also to
a wide range of available optional devices, not only the lowest
degree of energy and water consumption of the market but also offers
the highest possible output flexibility in terms of:
- Possibility
to change the hourly capacity from 0 to the highest plant capacity
(this interesting option allows, for instance, to avoid a storage
tank)
- Possibility
to produce distillate at any temperature from 25/30 up to 85/90°C
with the optional heat exchanger
- Possibility
to heat up the equipment by steam and/or by electricity (for instance
by steam, during the day and by electricity during the night,
when the cost/kW is cheaper).
- Possibility
to use feed water not only from pre-treatment plants such as the
Reverse Osmosis and the Demineralizers, but also from simple and
low cost softeners
- Very
user friendly controls, that allow a real simple operation , through
standard SCADA system
- Output
of WFI at 1 – 1.5 bars, therefore avoiding extra booster pumps
VERY
LOW RUNNING COSTS:
If compared to the traditional multi – effect technology, THE NEW
THERMO-COMPRESSION distillation technology allow enormous savings
of:
-
Cooling
water (the thermocompression requires NO cooling water)
-
Energy
(the energy required to run a thermocompression distiller is
less than 1/5 the energy required to run a Multiple effect Distiller
-
Accessories
: the distillate is flowing out from the thermocompression distiller
at a pressure of 1 – 1-5 bar ( in case of multiple effect it
flows out at atmospheric pressure) thus avoiding the need for
any booster pump.
-
Feedwater:
the thermocompression can work also with simple softened water,
saving the more expensive demineralized or osmotic infeed water
-
Depreciation:
the thermocompression distiller, than to the slower boiling
process is lasting some 30-40% more than then traditional multiple
effect distiller and therefore the depreciation of the plant
can be calculated in much longer term (15 – 20 years)
