ATMOSPHERIC EVAPORATOR Aqualogic Inc., North Haven, Conn.

The automatic Aqualogic Atmospheric Evaporator can evaporate up to 45 gph. Aqueous wastes or plating solutions are heated to 140-150°F and circulated through a spray nozzle atomizing the solution. Only water vapor is exhausted to the atmosphere through a chevron mist eliminator. Steam or hot water coils maintain the solution temperature. Concentrate is returned to the pro- cess or pumped out for disposal. The Evaporator is a unitized design, with chemical-resistant con- struction, for most plating and metal-finishing applications.
