Rotary evaporation is the process of reducing the volume of a solvent by distributing it as a thin film across the interior of a vessel at elevated temperature and reduced pressure. This promotes the rapid removal of excess solvent from less volatile

A rotary evaporator (rotavap) is a piece of equipment primarily used to remove solvent from a sample through “evaporation under reduced pressure”. The presence of reduced pressure in the apparatus causes the solvent (in the round bottom flask) to boi

Rotary evaporators (rotovap) are mainly used to evaporate light boiling components under normal pressure or vacuum. When used in pilot plants and small-scale production they are also suitable for semi-continuous evaporation. They are characterized

Rotary Evaporators For Your Laboratory Needs:
The rotary evaporator (rotovap) was invented back in the 1950. Perhaps slightly distrustful of the instrument at first, but soon hooked on its speed and ability to remove large amounts of

Solvent extraction and distillation are the most common processes in chemistry labs. These processes make it possible to separate the debris from the valuable materials. As such, laboratories have special machinery to accommodate these procedures in their research.
Many types of lab equipment can perform these processes. However, most chemists prefer rotary evaporators, also known as rotovap. But what is a rotovap? And how does a rotovap work?
