Steam Transformer Clarification
Steam Transformer Clarification
Evaporator of QNS prepared by Sutech Engineering Co., Ltd. Dated 7 September 2020
QNS likes to increase pressure of steam transformer vapour instead of increasing vapour pressure of
fine liquor FFE
Please check and suggest us the best solution to increase pressure of steam transformer vapor with
follow requirement
1. Input data
a. Steam transformer :
Type : Falling film evaporator, single effect,
Heat transfer surface : 1500 m2
b. Specification of inlet steam supply to steam transformer
Exhausted steam
Steam pressure P = 1.3 to 1.5 Kg / Cm2 ( gauge)
Steam temperature T = 125 oC to 130 oC,
c. Specification of existing outlet vapor from steam transformer
Vapor pressure 0.2 to 0.3 Kg / Cm2
Vapor temperature T = 115 oC to 117 oC
Vapor is consumed by
o Carbonated liquor heater: 7 tons per hour
o Fine liquor FFE: 8 ton per hour
o Vacuum pan: 30 tons per hour
o Molasses conditioning : 3 tons per hour
o Centrifuge: 3 tons per hour
o Dryer: 1 ton per hour
o Water heating : 5 tons per hour
2. Requirement of QNS:
The vapor from steam transformer should be reached
o Pressure 0.7 Kg / Cm2 (gauge)
o Temperature T = 115 oC to 117 oC
Other data of input data kept unchanged
