Custom Liquid Vacuum Degassing Machine: Tailored Purity for Your Process
Dissolved gases – oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide – lurking in your process liquids can be silent saboteurs. They cause oxidation, reduce product quality, create bubbles that ruin finishes, hinder chemical reactions, and damage sensitive equipment. If standard degassing units don't quite fit your unique requirements, custom liquid degassing equipment is the precise answer you need.
Off-the-shelf solutions work well for common scenarios, but many industrial, laboratory, and manufacturing processes demand more. Custom degassing systems are engineered from the ground up to address your specific challenges:
Precision Performance: Target exacting levels of gas removal (e.g., achieving sub-ppb oxygen levels for semiconductor processes or specific CO2 removal for beverage carbonation control).
Process Integration: Designed to fit seamlessly into your existing production line, space constraints, and workflow, whether it's a compact lab skid or a large-scale industrial installation.
Material Compatibility: Constructed with materials (stainless steel grades, specialized polymers, elastomers) that are chemically resistant to your specific liquid (solvents, aggressive chemicals, ultra-pure water, viscous fluids, slurries).
Scaled Capacity: Built to handle your exact flow rate requirements, from milliliters per minute in R&D to thousands of liters per hour in production.
Specialized Functionality: Incorporate features like multi-stage degassing, integrated sensors (for dissolved oxygen, pressure, temperature), automated control systems, heating/cooling jackets, or compatibility with sterile processes.
How Custom Degassing Works (Tailored Core Technology):
The core degassing principle (like vacuum membrane degassing or gas stripping) is adapted to your needs:
Membrane Contactors: Custom-sized membrane modules with specific fiber materials and pore structures maximize surface area and efficiency for your fluid properties.
Vacuum Systems: Optimized vacuum levels and chamber designs ensure efficient gas extraction without fluid loss or foaming issues specific to your liquid.
Gas Sparging: Precise control over inert gas type, flow rate, and dispersion for effective displacement stripping.
Control & Monitoring: Sophisticated PLC/SCADA systems provide the level of automation, data logging, and remote access you require. (If needed, please inform us)
Key Applications for Custom Degassing Equipment:
Semiconductor & Electronics Manufacturing:
Ultra-High Purity (UHP) Water & Chemicals: Removing dissolved oxygen and CO2 to ppb or ppt levels is critical for photolithography, etching, and wafer cleaning processes to prevent oxidation defects and ensure yield. Custom systems use high-grade materials (e.g., 316L or PVDF) and achieve extreme vacuum levels.
Pharmaceutical & Biotech:
Buffer & Media Preparation: Degassing buffers prevents bubble formation in bioreactors and chromatography systems, protects sensitive cells/proteins from oxidative stress, and ensures accurate pH measurement. Custom systems meet strict sanitary (ASME BPE) standards, use USP Class VI materials, and support CIP/SIP.
Solvent Degassing for HPLC/UHPLC: Consistent removal of dissolved gases from mobile phases is essential for baseline stability, accurate detection, and preventing pump cavitation. Compact, high-pressure custom modules integrate directly into HPLC systems.
Industrial Inkjet & Precision Printing:
Ink & Fluid Degassing: Eliminating bubbles prevents nozzle clogging, print head damage (cavitation), streaking, and poor print quality, especially with fast-drying or viscous inks. Custom solutions handle diverse ink chemistries and integrate into recirculation loops or bulk supply systems.
Coatings & Adhesives:
Resin, Monomer, & Solvent Treatment: Removing dissolved gases (especially oxygen) prevents bubble entrapment in finished coatings (causing pits or craters), inhibits premature polymerization, and ensures proper curing and adhesion. Custom systems handle high viscosities and potentially flammable solvents safely.
Specialty Chemical Processing:
Reaction Optimization: Precise control over dissolved gas levels (e.g., oxygen exclusion in polymerization, specific CO2 removal) can significantly influence reaction kinetics, product selectivity, and catalyst life. Custom systems are built to withstand corrosive or high-temperature process streams.
Food & Beverage (Specific Applications):
Deaeration of Sensitive Ingredients/Syrups: Removing oxygen to extend shelf-life, prevent flavor degradation, or color changes in sensitive liquid ingredients before mixing or packaging. Custom sanitary designs are essential.
Carbonation Control: Precise removal of excess CO2 or oxygen from water lines prior to carbonation for perfect control over fizz levels and taste stability.
