MVR Evaporator Solution for Sugar Evaporation & Syrup Concentration
Cane & beet sugar mills — concentrate thin juice to 60–70°Bx syrup with low energy, low color (ICUMSA), and stable crystallization.
Hanpu delivers EPC turnkey MVR evaporator systems for sugar evaporation and syrup concentration. Our designs integrate falling-film or forced-circulation effects to protect heat-sensitive juices, curb color formation, and cut steam demand. Whether you process cane sugar or beet sugar, we help you convert thin juice into thick juice / syrup for the boiling house / pan station, improving pan capacity and crystallization stability.
Common challenges in sugar evaporation
High steam consumption, sucrose inversion and caramelization at high temperature, scaling/fouling (e.g., CaCO₃, silica), rising viscosity at higher Brix, and off-spec condensate (odor/COD) that limits reuse. MVR solves these via low-temperature evaporation, optimized ΔT, and condensate polishing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about MVR sugar evaporation? Here are common FAQs. If you don’t see yours, contact us.
Q1: MVR vs. steam-driven multi-effect—how to choose in a sugar mill?
MVR reuses vapor via mechanical compression, ideal where electricity is competitive or steam is limited. Multi-effect uses live steam cascaded across effects. We compare your energy prices, evaporation duty, Brix and temperature limits to select or combine both.
Q2: Can MVR reach 60–70°Bx without excessive color formation?
Yes. Low-temperature operation and controlled ΔT help minimize sucrose inversion and caramelization, achieving low ICUMSA color at target Brix.
Q3: Which evaporator body should I choose—falling-film or forced-circulation?
Falling-film suits clean, heat-sensitive juice with lower viscosity; forced-circulation handles higher viscosity and scaling risk. We also offer hybrid trains to balance energy and operability.
Q4: What about condensate quality and reuse?
We add condensate stripping/polishing to meet reuse specs (odor/COD), enabling use as process water or boiler/cooling makeup and improving mill water balance.
Q5: Can your MVR retrofit my existing multi-effect line?
Yes. MVR can debottleneck existing effects or operate as a stand-alone concentrator feeding the pan station. We integrate controls, hydraulics, and CIP with your boiling house.
