The comessa "TURBOFLUID"
Dryer is designed for a combined conductive and intensive convective
drying. It is destined to process efficiently and uniformly the sludges
and divided solids. The drying principle is applicable to products
with free water content and which are not heat sensitive.
Working principle:
The TURBOFLUID
Dryer is constituted by a jacketed cylindrical and horizontal shell
with a rotor. The rotor is a hollow shaft extending axially through
the length of the shell. A varying number of radial arms are positioned
along the rotating shaft. These arms are eventually tipped with lifters.
The product is fed continuously. The orientation of the shovels is
provided for intense mixing of the product and incidently to obtain
a good heat and mass transfers. Some of the lifters are designed to
remove the product sticking eventually on the shell. The shaft is
designed to inject the hot drying gases inside the product layer.
The gas temperature can reach 650°C. It follows from above considerations,
that the TURBOFLUID
equipment is comparable to a Fluid Bed Dryer with submerged Heat Exchangers.
