Evaporation - 1

The document discusses evaporation and evaporators. Evaporation is the process of concentrating a solution by driving out the solvent, usually water, through the application of heat. Various examples of solutions that can be concentrated through evaporation are listed, including sugar, fruit juice, milk, sodium hydroxide, and sodium chloride. Different types of evaporators are also described, such as horizontal tube evaporators, short tube evaporators, and long tube natural circulation evaporators. Mass and heat balances and equations for the evaporator processes are provided.
