A total evaporator for fluids, including a cold chamber to prevent pre-evaporation, an evaporation region connected thereto having narrow flow cross-section for fast evaporation of the fluid, and a subsequent vapor chamber for pulsation damping and the controlled superheating of the vapor, the evaporation region being formed by a gap between concentrically nested cylindrical and/or conical tube sections and heat required for the evaporation and superheating processes is supplied by electric heating and/or by hot fluid and/or by catalytic or homogeneous combustion via the wall of the concentric tubes.

Compact total evaporator and device for carrying out the controlled drying, evaporation and/or reaction of a number of fluids

An apparatus for separation or synthesis of process substances is configured with at least two cell stacks, within each of which there is arranged at least one large-area layer for the separation or synthesis and passages are formed for feeding and discharging at least one process substance to or from the at least one layer. To ensure that the ratio of active surface area to total area of the layer is as high as possible yet on the other hand that uniform distribution of at least one process substance over the layer are ensured, at least two passages for a process substance are formed within at least a first cell stack, of which a first passage is used to pass the process substance through the first cell stack to a second cell stack and of which the second passage is used to feed or discharge the process substance to or from the at least one layer in the first cell stack.
