Fully automated explosion-proof 6 inch glass molecular distillation system for essential oils, pharmaceuticals, and heat-sensitive materials. Delivered to Australia.
We are pleased to announce the successful delivery of a fully automated, explosion-proof 6-inch glass molecular distillation system to our client in Australia. This project highlights our capability in providing customized molecular distillation solutions for high-value and heat-sensitive materials, with a strong focus on safety, automation, and stable performance.
The system is designed with a 150 mm (6-inch) main evaporator, offering an effective evaporation area of 0.25 m². It is specifically engineered for efficient separation and purification of temperature-sensitive compounds under high vacuum conditions.
This compact molecular distillation system integrates automated feeding, continuous distillation, and fraction collection into a closed and controlled process. With full explosion-proof (Ex-proof) configuration, it is suitable for applications involving volatile solvents and flammable materials, commonly found in pharmaceutical, essential oil, and specialty chemical processing.
10L Jacketed Feed Tank
Equipped with PTFE valves for excellent chemical resistance and safe handling of corrosive or solvent-based materials.
Automated Gear Pump Feeding System
Precisely controlled feeding rate of 2–5 L/h, ensuring stable and repeatable operation.
Wiped-Film Evaporator with PTFE Wiper System
A PTFE wiper blade driven by a magnetic stirrer forms a uniform thin film on the heated surface, maximizing heat transfer efficiency while minimizing thermal degradation.
Dual Explosion-Proof Gear Pumps for Collection
Separate Ex-proof gear pumps are used for light fraction and heavy fraction discharge, each with a capacity of 2–5 L/h, enabling continuous and fully automated separation.
Heating Tapes on Discharge Lines
Applied to prevent solidification or clogging, ensuring smooth material flow throughout the process.
This glass molecular distillation system is ideal for industries requiring high-purity separation under mild thermal conditions, including:
Pharmaceuticals & intermediates
Essential oils & botanical extracts
Nutraceuticals
Flavors & fragrances
Specialty and fine chemicals
The gentle short-path distillation process significantly reduces residence time and operating temperature, preserving product integrity, color, and active components.
Reduced manual intervention and labor cost
Improved process consistency and repeatability
Enhanced operational safety for solvent-based processes
Suitable for R&D, pilot-scale, and small-scale production
The system is especially well-suited for customers looking to scale up from laboratory research to pilot production while maintaining strict safety standards.
