The World’s Largest Rotary-Style Solvent Recovery System
The 200L EcoChyll® X9 Hi-Speed Evaporator is the world’s largest rotary-style solvent recovery system, engineered for extreme-scale decarboxylation and industrial solvent recovery applications. Designed to eliminate the limitations of traditional rotary evaporators and bulk industrial systems, the EcoChyll X9 delivers unmatched capacity, speed, and energy efficiency in a single integrated platform.
With a true 200-liter evaporation capacity, the EcoChyll® X9 can replace up to eight traditional 50-liter rotary evaporators while delivering higher throughput, lower operating costs, and dramatically improved process efficiency. Capable of evaporating up to 120 liters of ethanol per hour, it is one of the fastest large-scale evaporation systems available globally.
Unlike conventional approaches that require multiple rotary evaporators or expensive industrial falling film systems, the EcoChyll X9 provides a compact, high-performance alternative that reduces footprint, simplifies workflow, and significantly lowers capital and operational expenses.
Industrial-Scale Evaporation Redefined
The EcoChyll® X9 is built on Ecodyst’s proprietary engineering innovations, designed to rethink how large-scale solvent recovery is performed completely:
- Direct refrigerant cooling through metal condenser coils
- Stationary stirred evaporation flask instead of rotating glassware
- Direct heating via a high-efficiency heating mantle
- Fully integrated drain system for continuous operation
This combination of technologies enables:
- 50–80% lower energy consumption compared to traditional rotary evaporators
- Rapid startup with condenser cooling achieved in minutes
- Faster heating of large solvent volumes
- Reduced mechanical complexity and maintenance requirements
- Improved safety and reduced glassware handling risks
By removing inefficient chillers and rotating flask systems, the EcoChyll X9 delivers a fundamentally more efficient evaporation process.
Maximum Capacity, Minimum Complexity
Traditional scaling methods require multiple 50 L rotary evaporators, large industrial systems, or falling-film evaporators that are expensive, complex, and difficult to maintain. The EcoChyll® X9 replaces this approach with a single, streamlined system.
With its upright 200L stationary evaporation flask:
- Full capacity can be utilized without limitations
- Residual product can be drained easily via the valve system
- The risk of glass breakage is significantly reduced
- Operator workload is minimized
The result is higher productivity, fewer operators, and less downtime.
High-Performance Decarboxylation Capability
For cannabis and hemp processing facilities, the EcoChyll® X9 offers a major advantage: integrated decarboxylation capability.
Unlike vacuum ovens or reactors that may require 8–24 hours for processing, the X9 can perform decarboxylation in as little as 2 hours thanks to its controlled, uniform, high-efficiency heating system.
This enables:
- Faster production cycles
- Combined decarboxylation and solvent recovery in one system
- Reduced equipment requirements and workflow steps
Advanced Automation and Control
The EcoChyll® X9 is designed for modern industrial automation environments and integrates fully with process systems.
Key control features include:
- Digital monitoring of vacuum, temperature, stirring, and cooling
- Fully automation-ready system integration
- Continuous inline processing capability
- Minimal operator intervention required
