haihduttimessa

Haihduttimessa is a Finnish linguistic form used in technical and process descriptions to mean “in the evaporator.” It is formed from the verb haihduttaa (to evaporate) and the noun haihdutin (evaporator), with the inessive suffix -ssa/-ssä indicating location inside something. In Finnish technical writing, haihduttimessa functions as a location phrase referring to material that is inside or within the evaporator during a step of a process.

The word is commonly found in chemical engineering, food processing, and pharmaceutical texts, where evaporation is a key unit operation. When a process step occurs inside the evaporator, writers may describe streams, concentrations, or conditions as being present haihduttimessa. The corresponding equipment terms are haihduttamo or haihdutin for the evaporator itself, and haihduttaa for the action of evaporation.

In broader use, haihduttimessa helps specify stages of continuous or batch processes, such as concentrating solutions, removing solvents, or recovering volatile components. The precise meaning depends on context, but the general idea is that the described action or state takes place inside the evaporator rather than in preceding or subsequent equipment.

Related terms include haihduttamo (the evaporator/evaporating plant) and haihdutus (evaporation). As a grammatical form, haihduttimessa is part of standard Finnish process language and does not denote a separate concept by itself; it functions as a locational descriptor within descriptions of evaporative operations.
