More Info About the New Pilot 15 Centrifugal Distillation System

The Pilot 15 uses the centrifugal molecular distillation technique which has gained wide acceptance in the chemical, food processing, pharmaceutical, and petroleum industries as well as the specialty chemicals industry. The ROTOR 15 utilizes this technique for pilot plant and medium production needs on a continuous basis.

he PILOT-15 is a complete distillation system including all of the pumping, heating, vacuum generating and control equipment needed for plant operation. The small amount of floor space occupied by the unit helps make the PILOT-15, in single or multiple installations, a most attractive system. The control center features an easy to follow system schematic. The PILOT-15 is designed for throughputs between 10 and 80 lb/hr (4.5 to 36 kg/hr), depending on feed material characteristics

The major advantages to be expected from the Pilot 15 are:

• High product percentage yield
• Elimination of color bodies
• Elimination of odor fractions
• Reduction of acid values in ester distillation
• Removal of excess reactants
• Elimination of residual metal catalysts
• Minimized thermal hazard (a necessity for heat sensitive compounds)

The PILOT 15 is designed to continuously distill thermally sensitive organic and silicone compounds in the molecular weight range of 150 to 400 AMU at vacuum pressures from 1 to 700 X 10^-3 Torr. Some examples of distillation from the PILOT 15 include:

• Fatty acid amides
• Dimer acids
• Epoxy resins
• Drying oils
• Monoesters
• Di-octyl phthalate
• Vitamin A
• Tocoperols ( Vitamin E)
