PURE STEAM GENERATOR (PSG) SYSTEM
A pure steam generator (PSG) is a system that produces high-purity steam, often used in critical processes like sterilization, sanitization, and humidification, especially in industries like pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and food processing. Pure steam is steam that has been treated especially to remove all impurities, making it suitable for applications require sterility and purity.
A vertical shell and tube evaporator connected to a feed water reservoir at the top and bottom is a feature of Pure Steam Generators’ design. With the inner surface of the tube in contact with feed water, utility steam is supplied to the evaporator tubes’ external surfaces. Boiling occurs when the feed water is heated, resulting in a vapor/liquid combination that fills the tube’s interior and forms a liquid layer at the tube’s surface. Steam occupies the tube’s interior. Because the liquid in the reservoir and the liquid in the tube have different densities, this causes a flow of feed water from the reservoir to the bottom of the evaporator, adding more feed water to the evaporator.
Sterilizing systems: Pharmaceutical companies that make pharmaceuticals utilize pure steam to sanitize difficult-to-reach equipment including tanks, pipelines, and filters before and after the creation of their products.
Pharmaceutical cleanrooms need to humidify the air to keep it sterile. Inadequate humidity management can halt production and result in contamination that cannot be repaired. Pure steam may be used to carefully manage how much moisture is added to the air, and it does so without significantly changing the air’s temperature.
Sterilizing the items employed in the sterilization process: Sterilizing pharmaceutical items inside the sterilization chamber minimizes cross-contamination during the manufacture of pharmaceuticals.
