Feed-type ring dryer for industrial drying processes
In many industrial applications, achieving efficient drying of various feed materials such as powders, cakes, granules, and pastes can be challenging. Traditional drying methods often struggle with sticky or bulky products, leading to inconsistent drying and increased energy consumption.
Enhance drying with controlled residence time
The Feed-Type Ring Dryer by GEA is designed to address the inefficiencies of conventional drying technologies. This dryer features a unique single-blade manifold and internal classifier, which uses centrifugal forces to concentrate the product into a moving layer. The adjustable splitter blade allows for selective residence time, returning heavier, semi-dried material for further drying while allowing lighter, drier product to exit the system. The Feed-Type Ring Dryer can handle a variety of feed materials, including slurries, pastes, and sticky substances, through a back-mixing feed system. The system is adaptable for use in different industries such as agrifood, chemical, and mineral processing, offering large evaporative capacities and reduced footprint. GEA provides custom-designed systems to suit specific applications, integrating features like pre-separators for improved material collection and options for operation in inert atmospheres. This enhances thermal efficiency, reduces exhaust temperature, and ensures consistent product quality.
