Hybrid Steam Ejector + Liquid Ring Vacuum Systems

Ohm Engineers supplies hybrid combination vacuum systems — multi-stage steam jet ejectors with liquid ring vacuum pump backing — for deep, stable vacuum down to approximately 0.5 Torr with lower utility risk than ejector-only trains at the deepest pressures.

Key applications

Refinery vacuum distillation unit (VDU) backingSolvent recovery under deep vacuumMulti-effect evaporator vacuum trainsChemical process vacuum where steam and power utilities are mixed

Working principle

Hybrid vacuum system architecture

Primary stages use motive steam to compress process vapour to an intermediate pressure. A liquid ring vacuum pump provides the final compression to atmosphere, improving stability and reducing motive steam at very low suction pressures.

FAQ

Technical answers — Hybrid Vacuum Systems

How does a hybrid system compare to ejectors only?
Hybrids reduce motive steam at very low suction pressures and improve stability by using a liquid ring backing pump. Send suction load, pressure and available utilities for a stage-by-stage comparison on the offer.
When should I specify a hybrid instead of ejectors only?
When suction pressure must be held below ~1 Torr with stable operation, or when motive steam availability is constrained. Send suction capacity, pressure, and available steam conditions on the RFQ.
