Description
This pre-owned Stork 4-Effect MVR Evaporator Concentrator Plant is a highly efficient system designed specifically for concentrating skim milk in dairy production. It works by using a method called Mechanical Vapor Recompression (MVR), combined with a multi-stage evaporation process (four stages or “effects”), to remove water from the milk in the form of steam. This process increases the milk’s solid content. The equipment is still installed and is currently available for immediate sale.
Mechanical Vapor Recompression (MVR) represents an exceptionally energy-efficient technique employed in industrial evaporation processes, particularly within the dairy and food sectors, aimed at concentrating products by extracting or evaporating water. In MVR systems, liquid water is vaporized through heat, typically supplied as steam from a boiler. The generated vapor is subsequently compressed by a mechanical compressor, which elevates both its temperature and pressure. This reheated vapor is then utilized as the main heating source in the evaporator, eliminating the need for additional steam from the boiler. Consequently, this method facilitates a closed-loop system that recycles its own energy, significantly minimizing overall energy consumption.
