Small scale evaporation is done in a_________________?
Correct answer: D. Steam jacketed kettle
- A. Heat exchanger
- B. Condenser
- C. Multiple effect evaporator
- D. Steam jacketed kettle
Explanation
A steam-jacketed kettle is suitable for small-scale evaporation because steam heats the vessel indirectly and the liquor can be evaporated batchwise. Multiple-effect evaporators are preferred for larger, continuous operation and steam economy.
