1. Project background

The client is one of Egypt's largest corn product processors, primarily producing glucose, fructose, and sorbitol. In the syrup concentration process, their existing evaporation system mainly included:

MVR (Mechanical Vapor Recompression) evaporators

  • Multi effect evaporators
  • However, the original equipment (primarily sourced from Europe and the US) experienced the following issues after many years of operation:
  • High energy consumption: Excessive steam and electricity usage, failing to meet modern energy-saving standards
  • Unstable operation: Frequent scaling and clogging during syrup concentration
  • ENCO engineers conducted a thorough evaluation, identifying the main issues:
  • Severe scaling in falling film evaporators, affecting heat transfer
  • Insufficient automation, requiring excessive manual adjustments
