Description
ANTICO ShortPath™ is designed for separation of high-boiling and heat-sensitive compounds under high vacuum conditions. The working principle involves evaporation over a short distance to minimize residence time and thermal degradation. The system includes an evaporator, condenser, vacuum system, and collection units. It is used for purification of specialty chemicals, oils, and pharmaceuticals. The short path reduces pressure drop and improves separation efficiency. It allows operation at lower temperatures compared to conventional distillation. The system is ideal for thermally sensitive materials. It provides high purity and product recovery. It is widely used in fine chemicals and advanced material processing. ANTICO ShortPath™ ensures gentle and efficient separation.
Key Features
- Very low operating pressure
- Minimal thermal degradation
- High purity separation
- Compact design
