Effects of temperature conditions and heat treatment within a multiple effect evaporator on thin stillage fouling characteristics
Heat transfer fouling is the accumulation and formation of unwanted materials on heat transfer surfaces which leads to a decrease in the overall heat transfer coefficient. Fouling of heat transfer equipment increases energy consumption and maintenance costs and thus decreases processing efficiency. …

Effects of compositional variables on fouling behavior of thin stillage
… remaining nonfermentable material known as whole stillage is centrifuged to produce two processing streams; wet cake (30 to 35% solids) and thin stillage (5 to 10% solids). Thin stillage is concentrated to 25 to 30% solids in multi effect evaporators. The presence of fouling in evaporators can …

Characteristics of heat transfer fouling of thin stillage using model thin stillage and evaporator concentrates
… by dry grind process. Heat transfer equipment fouling occurs during corn ethanol production and increases the operating expenses of ethanol plants. Following ethanol distillation, unfermentables are centrifuged to separate solids as wet grains and liquid fraction as thin stillage. Evaporator …
