About ROTARY VACUUM EVAPORATOR - BUCHI TYPE
Standard Practice for Recovery of Asphalt Binder from Solution Using the Rotary Evaporator.
Applications
For Recovery of Asphalt Binder from Solution . The solution of bitumen and solvent from a prior extraction is distilled by partially immersing the rotating distillation flask of the rotary evaporator in a heated oil bath. The solution is subjected to a partial vacuum and a flow of nitrogen gas or carbon dioxide gas. These gases provide inert atmosphere to prevent oxidation of the bitumen during the recovery process
