    Abstract: This disclosure describes energy efficient process to distill a process stream in a production facility. A process uses multiple effect evaporators, ranging from one evaporator to eight evaporators in each effect. The process arrangement shows an example of four effect evaporators, with a zero-effect evaporator having a single evaporator, a first-effect evaporator having a set of three evaporators, a second-effect evaporator having a set of three evaporators, and a third-effect evaporator having a set of evaporators to create condensed distillers solubles.

    Abstract: A method that includes clarifying a thin stillage product in a mechanical processor to produce a fine suspended solids stream and a clarified thin stillage is provided. The method further includes providing the thin stillage product and the clarified thin stillage, separately or in a combined stream, to one or more evaporators to produce one or more reduced suspended solids streams, each stream having a reduced amount of suspended solids and a lower viscosity as compared to process streams having a comparable total solids content but containing a higher amount of suspended solids. The method can further included further processing of one or more of the reduced suspended solids streams to produce a bio-oil product.

    Abstract: A rotary tool for a mechanical separator, the tool can optionally comprise: a center shaft having a longitudinal axis; a plurality of longitudinal paddles coupled to the shaft, at least one paddle of the plurality of paddles having an inner edge and aligned radially relative to the longitudinal axis, wherein the at least one paddle has an elongate extent along the longitudinal axis with opposing lateral sides along the elongate extent; and a flange having a triangular shape in a radial cross-section, the flange affixed to the inner edge of the at least one paddle and having an apex radially inward of the at least one paddle. Other examples of the application include the rotary tool having a plurality of tools and the mechanical separator having the capability of being raised or lowered to alter a residence time of slurry within the mechanical separator.
