WIPED FILM DISTILLATION FOR THE HEMP AND CANNABIS INDUSTRIES
The Sky's The Limit
Wiped film distillation application
Molecular Distillation/Short Path Distillation is a comparatively new separation technology. It can separate liquidliquid mixture under temperature that is far lower than boiling point by the difference of mean free path of molecules under high vacuum condition. Such separation is difficult or unable to achieve on normal distillation equipments. Molecular Distillation is especially suitable to separate substances of high boiling point, heat sensitive and easy to be oxidized.
Main application field:
Food, Pharmaceutical, Fine chemical, Electronic materials, Polymers (Polyols, fatty acids, polyphenols-compounds, polyurethane, epoxy resin, lactate, glycerol monostearate, flavors and fragrances, fuel oil and paraffin oil), etc.

Low Temperature
Distilling temperature far lower than the boiling temperature has advantages on dealing with materials that is heat sensitive, of high boiling temperature, belongs to biological acids or lipids
Short Residence Time
Heating process on material is very short. It may take only few tens of seconds to finish a separation on wiped film distillation when it takes hours on a normal evaporation apparatus.
High Vacuum Operation
high-vacuum design WFE can operate with vacuums as low as 0.001mbar. Operating at deep vacuum lowers operating temperatures and prevents thermal degradation.
Efficient and Reliable
Specially designed, effectively improve the purity of the distillate product. The system is well suited for larger extraction labs where efficiency, repeatability and ease of use are critical.
