Evaporators are a common sight in virtually any laboratory. “Everyone is evaporating off solvents,” says Jeff Reid, product specialist for evaporation at BUCHI (New Castle, DE). That includes everything from academic and environmental labs to the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. So anyone who wants to dry something down to a powder, recrystalize a sample, or recycle a solvent needs an evaporator.
