Rotational Vacuum Concentrators
Solvent evaporation systems are designed for use in drug discovery applications and are in use in pharmaceutical research laboratories world wide. Rotational vacuum concentrators rely on boiling the solvent at low temperature. Low temperature boiling is achieved by using a vacuum pump to lower the pressure in the system, and therefore the boiling point of the solvents. The heat that is needed for boiling is supplied by IR heat lamps.
