Unit II Summary: Heat Transfer, Evaporation, and Distillation
Unit II focuses on the fundamental concepts and industrial applications of heat transfer, evaporation, and distillation in pharmaceutical engineering.
The heat transfer section begins with its objectives and importance in pharmaceutical processes. It discusses the various mechanisms of heat transfer—conduction, convection, and radiation—along with Fourier’s law, which governs the rate of heat transfer through a material. The unit also explores the construction and working of heat exchangers and heat interchangers, which are crucial for maintaining temperature control in processing systems.
The evaporation section outlines the objectives and applications of evaporation, distinguishing it from other heat processes like drying and distillation. It discusses factors influencing the evaporation process and presents the design, construction, and working principles of several evaporators. These include the steam jacketed kettle, horizontal tube evaporator, climbing film evaporator, forced circulation evaporator, and multiple effect evaporator. The concept of economy in multiple effect evaporators is also covered, emphasizing energy efficiency in large-scale operations.
The distillation section delves into its basic principles and methodologies. It explains different types of distillation techniques used in pharmaceutical industries, such as simple distillation, flash distillation, fractional distillation, distillation under reduced pressure, steam distillation, and molecular distillation. Each method is examined in terms of principle, operation, and application, providing a comprehensive understanding of how distillation is used for the separation and purification of liquid components in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
