Stainless Steel Molecular Distillation - Industrial Scale Separation Solutions
The stainless steel Molecular distillation by Xi'an Bioland is state-of-the-art equipment for industrial-scale liquid-liquid separation. We are able to gently separate heat-sensitive compounds at temperatures well below their boiling points thanks to our equipment, which is constructed with superior SS316L steel and achieves ultra-high vacuum levels of 0.01Pa. Delivering single-stage, dual-stage, and three-stage designs, our team has 15 years of molecular distillation experience and 50 successful installations. We guarantee GMP/FDA compliance, have systems certified by CE, ISO, UL, and ATEX, and our control systems are either ABB or SEW. You can rely on each unit as a dependable partner for scaling from pilot to full production due to its improved heat conductivity and throughput compared to glass alternatives.

The stainless steel Molecular distillation is a process of separation, purification and concentration of natural products, which is characterized by the separation of chemicals at the level of molecular free short route, which is different from the principle of separation by difference of traditional boiling point.
As a professional manufacturer, we can offer turnkey solutions for molecular distillation units, including molecular units, vacuum pumps, chillers, heaters, and necessary feeding / receiving components.
stainless steel Wiped film Molecular Distillation is a comparatively new separation technology. It can separate liquid-liquid mixture under temperature that is far lower than a boiling point by the difference of mean free path of molecules under high vacuum conditions. Such separation is difficult or unable to achieve normal distillation equipment. Molecular Distillation is especially suitable to separate substances of high boiling point, heat sensitive, and easy to be oxidized.

Working Principle
The material is added from the top of the evaporator and distributed continuously and uniformly on the heating surface through the material-liquid distributor. The film scraper scrapes the product into a very thin, turbulent liquid film. In this process, the light molecules escaping from the heating surface reach the condenser and condense into liquid, and flow down the condenser tube, and discharge through the discharge tube at the bottom of the evaporator; Residues, or heavy molecules, are collected in a circular channel under the heating zone and then discharged through a side discharge tube.

Why Choose Us?Proven Industrial Expertise
We have dedicated more than 15 years to honing our molecular distillation technology to meet the rigorous requirements of industrial settings. Your manufacturing issues are understood by our engineering staff.
Customization That Fits Your Process

There are specific needs for each type of institution. Depending on your particular demands, we may modify the size, heating systems, and automation levels of your equipment as part of our extensive OEM/ODM services. Within 30 business days, you will have your customized solution.
Quality You Can Trust
Our molecular distillation systems made of stainless steel are certified by ATEX, CE, ISO, and UL. Extensive testing is carried out on each item at the manufacturing. Throughout the duration of the project, we will keep you updated regularly and give comprehensive photographic and video footage.
Superior Material Construction
Our only material is SS316L stainless steel that has had its inside surfaces electropolished (Ra ≤ 0.4µm). This keeps your goods free of heavy metal leaching, protects them from contamination, and keeps them from corroding when used with acidic feedstocks.

Complete After-Sales Support
A 12-month warranty and lifelong maintenance are in place to safeguard your investment. For help with problems, advice on how to optimize, or replacement parts, our technical team is always on hand.
Fast Delivery Options
Standard equipment typically ships in 5-7 days. If you need your shipment to arrive by a certain date, we can accommodate that via air, train, or sea.

Application Fields

Numerous sectors rely on our molecular distillation technology, which is constructed from stainless steel, for the separation of very pure substances:
Botanical Extraction & CBD/THC Processing
Extract therapeutic cannabis oil with stainless steel Molecular distillation. By isolating cannabinoids from terpenes and eliminating solvents, "gold" grade products can reach 90% purity. Stainless steel resists aggressive CIP chemicals.
Food & Nutraceutical Production
Concentrate fish oil with omega-3s. Remove pesticides, heavy metals, and PCBs. Opaque stainless steel prevents photodegradation of light-sensitive lipids.
Essential Oil Refinement
Remove undesirable aromas and colour from important essential oils. For aromatherapy and medicine, purify to pharmaceutical standards.
Fine Chemical Manufacturing
Clean silicone oils, synthetic waxes, and specialty lubricants. Get rid of non-reacting monomers while producing polymers. Some applications are 350°C-resistant.
Drug Intermediaries
Heat-sensitive API intermediates should not decline. Comply with strict pharmaceutical production regulations.
Vitamin & Supplement Industry
Separate and concentrate the vitamin K, E, D, and C. Gentle processing is required for natural tocopherols and other dietary components.

FAQ
Q: What's the difference between stainless steel and glass molecular distillation?
A: Stainless steel offers superior mechanical strength for industrial scaling, better thermal conductivity for faster processing, and compliance with GMP standards. Glass systems are fragile and limited to laboratory volumes.
Q: What throughput capacity should I choose?
A: This depends on your annual production targets. We'll calculate optimal capacity based on your feedstock properties, desired purity, and operating hours. Contact us for a customized assessment.
Q: Can your system handle viscous materials?
A: Yes. Our heating jackets maintain optimal viscosity, and adjustable wiper speeds accommodate materials from thin oils to thick resins.
Q: How long does installation and commissioning take?
A: Typically 3-5 days for standard systems. We provide on-site installation guidance and operator training. Remote commissioning is available with video support.
Q: What maintenance is required?
A: Regular maintenance includes checking seal integrity, cleaning evaporator surfaces, and vacuum system inspection. We recommend quarterly maintenance schedules and provide detailed protocols.
Q: Do you support Clean-in-Place (CIP) systems?
A: Absolutely. Our equipment features sanitary tri-clamp connections and spray ball mounts for automated CIP integration, essential for food and pharmaceutical production.
