Concentration of water samples

Radionuclides and heavy metals are routinely analysed in surface and groundwater, drinking water and other types of water. This is often used for monitoring nuclear power plants. For this purpose, large amounts of water must be concentrated in order to make it possible to detect the residues. The use of a fully automatic large-scale rotary evaporator makes this step particularly efficient and time-saving by operating it overnight.

The analysis laboratory of a German nuclear power plant* has replaced its manual rotary evaporator system with the Distimatic Industrial Platinum 8 package. With a rate of 4.6 l/h, the required amount of 70 liters per day can be efficiently processed. In addition, the automated system saves one working hour per day.
