Attomo company is the top manufacturer and turnkey supplier that understands the importance of reliable and efficient distillation systems, especially in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food, and beverages. We are also expertise in designing and engineering consultation.
- Multi-effect evaporation (MEE) is a thermal desalination process that uses multiple stages of evaporation and condensation to separate water from salts and impurities. In MEE, the water is heated in multiple evaporator stages under reduced pressure, with each stage operating at a progressively lower pressure and temperature. This allows for maximum energy efficiency and results in a high-quality, pure distillate.
- Our Multi-Effect Evaporation distillation plant is equipped with state-of-the-art technology that allows for maximum energy efficiency, and it can be customized to meet your specific requirements. Whether you need a small-scale plant for a laboratory or a large-scale industrial plant, our team of experts will work with you to design the perfect system to meet your needs.
- One of the key features of our Multi-Effect Evaporation distillation plant is its ease of operation and maintenance. Our plant is designed for maximum reliability and minimal downtime, which means that you can focus on your core business activities without worrying about plant-related issues. Additionally, our after-sales support is comprehensive and includes assistance with installation, commissioning, and ongoing maintenance.
- Our Multi-Effect Evaporation distillation plant is manufactured using high-quality materials and components, ensuring that it is built to last. We take pride in the quality of our products and offer a warranty to give you peace of mind.

Frequently asked question about Multi Effect Evaporation Plant
Yes, the primary benefit is exceptional energy efficiency in industrial distillation and wastewater treatment. By utilizing multiple stages where each effect operates at progressively lower pressures, the system reuses latent heat from vapor generated in previous stages. This significantly reduces steam consumption and operational costs while ensuring a high-quality, pure distillate for industries like pharmaceuticals and chemicals.
Attomo’s MEE plants achieve Zero Liquid Discharge by concentrating industrial effluents to a high level before final solid-liquid separation. The process involves:
- Initial preheating using sensible heat from condensate.
- Sequential evaporation across multiple effects (up to 6 stages).
- Final processing through an Agitated Thin Film Dryer (ATFD) or Crystallizer. This comprehensive system ensures complete water recovery and eliminates liquid waste.
A wide range of sectors benefit, particularly those handling heat-sensitive or high-volume effluents. Key industries include:
- Distilleries: Grain, molasses, and malt-based ethanol plants.
- Food & Beverage: Concentration of milk, juices, and coffee.
- Pharmaceuticals: Herbal extract processing and solvent recovery.
- Chemicals: Treatment of dyes, intermediates, and sodium sulphate solutions. The technology is essential for any facility requiring sustainable wastewater management.
Yes, Attomo MEE plants are specifically engineered to handle highly heat-sensitive liquids without compromising product stability. By utilizing technologies like Scraped Surface Evaporators and falling film systems under high vacuum, the plant operates at lower temperatures. This ensures the original properties, aroma, and nutritional value of products like herbal extracts or food concentrates remain intact during the evaporation process.
Attomo designs MEE plants for maximum reliability with minimal maintenance requirements. The systems feature high-quality materials like SS 316 L and Duplex 2205 to resist corrosion and fouling. Because the design minimizes moving parts, downtime is significantly reduced. Routine maintenance typically involves monitoring pressure gradients, checking pump seals, and ensuring the self-cleaning action effectively manages scaling in the heat exchanger tubes.
