Vobis, LLC Pilot Evaporator Systems

Vobis has over 23 years of working experience in the design and manufacture of evaporation and crystallization pilot plant systems (in addition to our large production scale systems).  Our various technologies and sizes of pilot evaporators (pot still, falling film, forced circulation, rising film, MVR, MVC, WFE, TFE and SPD (molecular Stills)) enable our clients to meet a variety of process goals – from laboratory to production scale, including the generation of scale-up data, the production of marketing samples or the small scale production of products.  Our pilot evaporators process solutions’ capacities range from a few kilograms per hour to several thousand kilograms per hour.

Integrated into our pilot evaporation systems are controls ranging from simple manual controls to fully automated Allen Bradley or Siemens PLC controls and instrumentation, the necessary piping, valves, tankage, heat exchangers, hot oil systems, chillers, frame sets, and vacuum systems for continuous or batch operation.

Our engineers are experienced in testing, designing. manufacturing and the implementation of pilot and production evaporation and crystallization systems, with design experience in a broad range of applications, including pharmaceutical, nuclear, food, chemical process industry, nutraceutical, agricultural, the oil patch, hemp processing, and waste water industries.  Vobis pilot evaporation systems’ applications fully utilize our specialized experience in order to develop customized systems solutions to fulfill our clients’ process goals.

Vobis is also an authority in highly specialized, technically demanding applications in the chemical process, polymer, agricultural, pharmaceutical, food and nutraceutical industries. These include pilot scale wiped film evaporation and high vacuum molecular distillation systems for various areas of application including the natural extracts, flavor/fragrance, nutraceutical, energy, hemp and pharmaceutical industries as well as other industries requiring these capabilities, and for highly viscous yet temperature sensitive applications which require our high viscosity wiped film pilot evaporation systems. 

Each of the sections of our website, accessible through the navigation menu, addresses a specialized category of pilot scale evaporation equipment in which Vobis has expertise and manufactures systems. Each section includes photos provides an introductory description of the equipment and how it works, and examples of applications that can be solved by each of the processs.  Please contact us with any further questions via the contact form, or submit your email address via the field on this page’s side bar in order to stay informed regarding new technology developments.
