Method and apparatus for performing multiple cleaning and vacuum drying operations in enclosed vessels
A method for performing multiple cleaning and vacuum drying operations in enclosed vessels uses cleaning and vacuum drying apparatus, low-dissolved-air cleaning solution, and drain-to-vacuum process to produce vacuum in a cleaning vessel, so that influence of air pressure on the operations is minimized. The method utilizes physical features that boiling points of general liquids lower with reduced pressure, that liquid saturated vapor pressure reduces with lowered temperature, and that two vacuum vessels of different working temperatures would have a pressure differential between their saturated vapor pressures, and uses heat control units and heat egress units to regulate temperature and pressure in the vacuumized cleaning vessel, so that wet clean, dry clean, vacuum heat drying, and vacuum freeze drying can be performed on the same apparatus, and low-pressure gas used in the dry clean and cleaning solution and waste solution can be recovered to achieve environment protection and energy saving.
