Thermal Vapor Recompression (TVR) Evaporators

The Anhydro® Tubular TVR Evaporator provides gentle, cost-effective evaporation for low-viscosity liquids in dairy, food, and industrial processing. It’s falling film design with thermal vapor recompression (TVR) and a multi-effect setup maximizes energy efficiency while protecting product quality.

The system is ideal for heat-sensitive ingredients enabling consistent concentration, reduced steam use, and precise temperature control—all in a hygienic, CIP-compatible design.

It concentrates low-viscosity liquids by evaporating water through a falling film and multi-effect process. Thermal vapor recompression (TVR) boosts efficiency by recycling part of the vapor as a heat source, minimizing live steam demand.

 

 

A steam jet (thermo-compressor) recompresses vapor from one effect and reuses it in the first effect. Combined with multi-effect staging, this dramatically reduces live steam usage and operating costs.

 

 

It’s ideal for dairy, beverages, plant-based, nutraceutical, and industrial applications, especially where product quality, consistency, and energy efficiency are priorities.

 

 

Yes. Its compact, modular build supports integration into both new and retrofit installations with minimal layout changes.

 

 

Yes. The system provides stable, uniform cooling and evaporation, ideal for applications like lactose or whey permeate that require precise crystal formation.

 

 

It’s fully compatible with automated CIP systems and designed for sanitary, low-maintenance operation.
