Summary:Evaporation is one of unit operations commonly used in industrial processes. Its function is to concentrate a solution by removing the solvent in vapor form. The evaporator type Robert's is the most widely used in the sugar industry due to its heating area. This study aimed to build a pre-evaporator on a pilot scale for concentration of sugarcane juice and steam generation. industrially applied processes are mentioned, which were discussed technical and operational parameters for steam economy.Keywords – Evaporation equipment, Industry.
