Short path distillation operates within a specific temperature range to ensure efficient and gentle treatment of various compounds.
4 Key Temperatures You Need to Know
Temperature Range in Short Path Distillation
Short path distillation typically operates between 212°F and 482°F.
This wide range accommodates different boiling points of various compounds.
It ensures minimal thermal stress and optimal separation of heat-sensitive products.
Role of the Chiller
The chiller in short path distillation operates at around 122°F (50°C).
This temperature is crucial for preventing clogging in the system.
It also ensures efficient vapor condensation, keeping the process uninterrupted.
Process Efficiency and Gentle Treatment
Short path distillation uses low process pressures and short path evaporators.
This design allows for gentle thermal treatment of high-boiling and heat-sensitive products.
The low evaporation temperature and short residence time minimize thermal stress on the product.
Condensation and Temperature Management
The condenser temperature in short path distillation is typically set between 40°C and 60°C.
A preference for 50°C (122°F) as a starting point ensures easy vapor recondensation.
This temperature maintains the efficiency of the distillation process and prevents clogging issues.
