Short Path Distillation Unit Manufacturers, & Suppliers in India

Concept Process Equipments, leading short path distillation unit manufacturers, suppliers, exporters in India, are offering the top quality of short path distillation unit that are primarily used to purify and isolate specific types of compounds such as chemical mixtures and liquid mixtures which requires higher purity and applied in pharmaceuticals, food processing and chemical manufacturing industries.

These are majorly used for sensitive compounds and small quantity distillation. We have used multiple types of new technological updates for improving performance. Let’s check out its various kinds of types, its benefits and applications!

Our various kinds of SPDU Manufacturers in India

As former short path distillation unit manufacturers in India, we are presenting multiple types and each one is made with strong quality of materials and gives higher performance. Here we have mentioned below some types such as:

  • Single-Stage Short Path Distillation: Our basic unit includes a single distillation column where the feed is heated to vaporize the desired component, which then condenses on a surface near the vapor source. Modern versions of these units now often feature IoT-based monitoring, allowing temperature, pressure, and flow rates to be controlled remotely. This integration ensures consistency and efficiency, especially in small-scale applications. Additionally, some models are equipped with heat recovery systems to improve energy efficiency, making them both more sustainable and cost-effective.
  • Multi-Stage Short Path Distillation: This unit uses several stages in a row to heat and condense the vapor multiple times, which leads to better purity and separation. By combining methods like SPD with membrane filtration or chromatography, it can separate more complicated mixtures, giving even higher purity and efficiency. Some of these multi-stage systems are designed to run continuously, making them more scalable and suitable for large-scale industrial use.
  • Wiped Film Short path distillation unit(WFSPD): In this unit, the feed is spread into a thin film over a heated surface, which helps transfer heat more efficiently and reduces the chance of damaging the material. WFSPD is now being combined with other methods, like membrane filtration, to make purifications even more effective, especially for separating complex chemical mixtures in industries. The system is also incorporating more environmentally friendly practices, such as using greener solvents and reducing waste, in line with the push for more sustainable manufacturing.
  • Cow Urine Distillation System: Our new technological cow urine distillation system is used to purify and concentrate cow urine for different purposes like Ayurvedic medicine, farming, and cosmetics. The system works by heating the urine and then condensing the vapor to separate the useful compounds. Modern systems are more efficient, using automation, energy-saving features, and technologies like membrane filtration to improve purity. Cow urine distillates are commonly used in Ayurveda for their health benefits, as natural fertilizers in organic farming, and in skincare products for their antibacterial effects. New upgrades, such as multi-stage condensers and vacuum distillation, help protect delicate compounds during the process. Researchers are also exploring the potential medical uses of the purified urine.

Features and Benefits of our short path distillation unit suppliers in India

One of the former short path distillation unit suppliers in India, our all types are made with new technological updates and gives maximum performance and benefits such as:

  • Preservation of Heat-Sensitive Compounds: SPD is ideal for distilling sensitive compounds like essential oils, terpenes, and cannabinoids, as it prevents heat damage and keeps the natural flavors and aromas intact, ensuring the final product remains pure and effective.
  • Small-Scale, High-Throughput: SPD uses special glass or metal parts with a short distillation path, usually around 10-20 cm. This makes it possible to distill at lower temperatures, which helps avoid heat damage. The short path also ensures that the natural aromas and qualities of the compounds are kept intact, resulting in a better end product.
  • Multivariable Control and Monitoring: Multivariable control systems let operators keep track of and adjust multiple factors at the same time, ensuring the best conditions for distilling different compounds. This makes it easier to fine-tune the process on the spot, improving both the consistency and quality of the final product.
  • Advanced Vacuum Pumping Systems: Newer vacuum systems, like scroll or diaphragm pumps, give better control over the pressure, making the distillation process more stable and efficient. They help keep the pressure consistent, which leads to higher yields, fewer unwanted reactions, and a better final product, all while using less energy and cutting costs.
