New summit research max rotovap 80 LPH!?!?!?

Not sure how many KW the heater is on that thing, but your need 16 kw for 80 lph with ethanol.

I call BS

He might have a 5 kw heater

Theres a certain amount of energy required for phase change

You can use vacuum to lower the boiling point so itll boil at room temp, vacuum will not reduce the energy required for phase change though

That looks like a nice table, I’m guessing you just plug in the variables and the computer does the math then?

Yes

You can pretty much adjust any value in the table

This thing is accurate too

Bottom line is theres no way hes hitting 80lph with 5kw heating

We should start a over/under for how many liters an hour this thing does. It’s already been proven here that your claims are outlandish and can’t and never will hit 80L an hour.

You yourself could have already gone In the shop and set this up and made a video already but instead your all excuses like usual

How does the Yellowstone FFE play out on this table?

Lmao meow. Merry Christmas Elliot and happy holidays.

It’s called show me the proof and not your wild claims as per usual.

You can be as butt hurt about people calling you out as you want little buddy.

But a normal human being would let the video do the talking not your wierd spastic rant that’s still yet to show proof of either SPD numbers or roto numbers.

You said your SPD videos were all over the internet. Just post one here man. Didn’t think that was super difficult

How about you just leave the forum until you can actually:

1: post video of 5L an hour on a SPD.

2: post video of 80L an hour on your new Roto

Until then maybe you shouldn’t post here anymore. You are the only manufacturer that can’t back up his outlandish claims with a simple video. I mean i think that would just be a no brainer since you are the creator. I still can’t believe nobody took a video while this revelotionary technology was being displayed in your shop for over a week.
You also claimed that you would on site in Vegas a SPD do 5L an hour at your booth? Again why no video if this was set up at the show tonback up these outrageous claims. Post up a video and will gladly shit the fuck up already

I’ll do the calculations now

I did the bizzy and delta in another thread and it matched exactly what both claimed.

heat input side is correct.

They claim the 60kw unit does 80 gph which just about matches the thermo dynamics

They use a small plate heat exchanger to preheat the incoming crude/ cool the hot vapor

This helps preheat the crude close to its evaporation temp helping eliminate the 5kw delta t requirement ( delta t in this case is the amount of energy to take the ethanol from room temp to boiling)

They have another heat exchanger that uses a pump to circulating water between the radiator and the system for cooling

Not sure what the energy requirement is for there pumps and radiator system

You already know its not the hot side that I’m curious about :wink: @Kingofthekush420

It just pushes heat out via a radiator? A chiller does the same thing but just compresses the gas first so you get a bigger temp difference and can cool to a lower range. Any device that does not use a chiller operates hotter and any residual heated vapor can potentially escape whereas the chiller system would operate such that if the power goes out the system operates at a much lower temp so will not spew out hot vapor.

There are some A GRADE AMATEUR ASSHOLES on this thread and I have a long memory. What the actual fuck, a case of the Mondays does not rationalize a damn thing, with so many issues perhaps the need to open up a magazine stand should be looked into.

Been on this forum for a year now and definitely have noticed an uptick in what you call out. Disappointing. Hate to see this place become toxic

The only downside I see to the Yellowstone is

1 the delta t requirement to get the solution to boiling since it runs at atmosphere

2 your ethanol is going to come out hot where as with a chiller you can chill the ethanol down much more

People keep getting thrown off in their calculations on the chiller side because they are cleverly using cold crude laden ethanol they just extracted in a heat exchanger with ethanol vapor to add kW on the condensing side.

However you are chilling that ethanol before extraction has an energy contribution in kW of chilling that isn’t being considered in the math or spreadsheets.

The Yellowstone is not recycling that way, AFAIK. But I agree, if you are recycling that needs to be accounted for

They are doing the same thing delta is doing

They have 1 small heat exchangers that the hot vapor passes through before hitting there main condenser that pre heats the crude as its fed into the evaporator

Send that heat to your evaporator feed, no? (the incoming ethanol-oil tincture)

Youd need a ton of surface area

Your ethanol will always come out warmer then what it went in at, and if you’re starting at room temp then you’ll have vapors coming off after
