Crystallization

This is an evaporation and cooling process of supersaturated liquid to form crystals. Vacuum pumps are used to control the evaporation and cooling rates at various pressure ranges.

Degassing

Degassing is the removal of dissolved gases in liquid or solid products. Flowserve ASME / ISO centrifugal & vacuum pumps are commonly used for the extraction of unwanted gases.

Drying

Our line of liquid ring vacuum units were designed by experts to ensure a steady state of low temperatures and prevent thermal degradation during the drying process. You can count on Flowserve to ensure your drying applications are supported by the highest quality of equipment.

Freeze Drying

Freeze drying is a critical application for you—one that ensures optimal condition of your end products while removing excess materials. Flowserve products and solutions are specially designed for precision within this process.

Process Mix & Blend

In this basic operation, our ASME / ISO centrifugal pumps and 316ss gate, globe and plug valves are critical in ensuring your products meet demands for high quality. Additionally, our line of vacuum pumps plays a vital role in the manufacturing of bulk drugs, intermediate drug products or active pharmaceutical ingredients.

Sanitary SIP & CIP

It’s vital that you have the equipment to deliver on stringent sanitary standards with minimum downtime. Flowserve centrifugal and liquid ring products have a wide range of applications.

Sterile Coatings

Strict safety concerns for end users can put high pressure on the plant. Flowserve precision-engineered services help your operations adhere to standards.

Vacuum Distillation

Distillation is the thermal process that separates different solvents in a liquid mixture. Each solvent differs in temperature, pressure and composition. To separate solvents, the vapor has to be removed from a boiling liquid mixture and re-condensed after the evaporation. Vacuum pumps are used for the removal of non-condensable, water and light solvents.
