In a backward feed multiple effect evaporator ___________________ ?

Correct answer: B. Feed flows from low pressure to high pressure

  • A. Feed is introduced in the first effect
  • B. Feed flows from low pressure to high pressure
  • C. No pumps are required between successive effects
  • D. None of these

Explanation

In backward feeding, fresh feed enters the last, low-pressure effect and moves toward the first, high-pressure effect. Pumps are therefore needed between effects, making feed flow from low pressure to high pressure.
