Seawater desalination ... Features Multi-Effect Distillation (MED). Vertical Tube Evaporation (VTE). Concrete Containment Shell. Aluminum Double-fluted Evaporator Tubes. Minimal Feedwater Pretreatment ... This innovative seawater desalination technology consists of an enhanced multi-effect distillation process that involves a series of fluted aluminum tube bundles vertically stacked in a concrete vacuum tower. The advantages of the technology are based on the high heat transfer performance of the tube bundles and on the reduced cost of the construction materials. 5, record 1, English, - vertical%20tube%20evaporation

Comme exemple de réalisation d’une unité d’évaporation à tubes horizontaux équipée de CMV [...] citons l’usine de la Société Knipping Gmbh à Kierspe près de Düsseldorf. Cette usine réalise le chromage et le zingage de petites pièces pour l’industrie automobile. Afin de pouvoir recycler intégralement l’eau qu’elle utilise pour le rinçage de ses pièces, l’usine dispose de petits évaporateurs dont un évaporateur Entropie avec CMV qui régénère l’eau de rinçage à partir de rinçages morts. 2, record 1, French, - %C3%A9vaporation%20%C3%A0%20tubes%20verticaux
