- Wiped Film Evaporator (WFE)
Our Wiped Film Evaporator (WFE) is a specialized thin film evaporator engineered for the continuous separation, concentration, and purification of high-viscosity, heat-sensitive, or thermally unstable materials. The product is spread as a thin, turbulent film by rotating wiper blades on a heated surface, enabling rapid heat transfer and low residence time under high vacuum conditions.
Designed for precision and purity, WFE is widely used in pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, nutraceuticals, herbal extracts, essential oils, and cosmetic formulations.
