What is evaporation?
A rotary evaporator is a laboratory device that allows the separation of two or more substances. This process is called distillation. To understand in detail what a rotary evaporator is and how it works, you must first understand the phenomenon of evaporation. This includes understanding the physical principle behind it.
Cooling options for rotary evaporators
The choice of the cooling method has a major influence on the performance, economy and handling of a rotary evaporator system. When purchasing or retrofitting a system, the choice of the cooling system is therefore one of the key decisions. This document shall help you finding the right cooling method for your needs.
