One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Evaporation and evaporator types

Evaporation is the process of converting a liquid into vapor by supplying heat; it is the most energy‑intensive unit operation in many industrial processes. Mastering the driving forces, heat duty calculations, and the characteristics of the main evaporator types (falling‑film, rising‑film, forced‑circulation, tray, bubble‑column) is essential for designing efficient, cost‑effective units and for answering exam…
