How It Works

  • Loading: The wet material is placed inside the vacuum drying chamber.
  • Pressure Reduction: The chamber is sealed, and air is evacuated using a vacuum pump to create a low-pressure environment.
  • Boiling Point Reduction: At reduced pressure, the boiling point of water and solvents drops drastically, allowing evaporation at much lower temperatures.
  • Heat Transfer: Gentle heating (via conduction, radiation, or circulation of a heating medium) provides energy for evaporation.
  • Evaporation & Drying: Moisture evaporates quickly without overheating the product.
  • Condensation & Recovery: Vapors are condensed, and solvents/water are collected for disposal or reuse.
  • Final Output: Completely dried material with preserved structural and chemical integrity.
