By
cooperating with Zhejiang University of Technology, the company has
successfully developed High Gravity Distillation Machine, also named as “Higee
distillation machine”, or "Higee Rotating Zigzag Bed", to recover
organic solvents for chemical and pharmaceutical industries. The Higee
Distillation Machine is used for continuous distillation operations such as
Methanol-water, Ethanol-water, DMSO systems, and Multi-component material
distillation. It is a major breakthrough for traditional plate and packed
column, and is a better substitute for conventional distillation column.Higee refers to a
centrifugal field generated by high speed revolution in order to replace the
regular gravitational field. It is a promising process intensification
technology that has been developed over 30 years. Comparing to
conventional distillation columns, the Higee distillation machine dramatically
reduces the equipment size, simplifies the process operation with less process
time, saves energy and reduces the cost. The purity of
recovered product can reach to 99.95%, and the contaminant in discharged water
can be significantly reduced to 0.5% and below.
