Flash dryer for high-moisture bulk materials

Tackle high-moisture challenges head-on with rapid drying solutions that efficiently transform wet bulk materials into dry, manageable forms, ensuring optimal heat transfer and energy recovery within your continuous operations.

Dries and Disintegrates High Moisture Bulk Materials

The Dispersion Dryer by Allgaier Process Technology is a cutting-edge flash drying solution designed for high-speed drying of moist and lumpy bulk materials, leveraging a fluidized bed dryer design. What sets this equipment apart is its unique ability to process materials like powders, filter cakes, and fibers with high moisture content in a single step. The operating principle involves a high-intensity gas stream that facilitates superior heat and mass transfer, drastically reducing drying time.

Ideal for industries spanning from food products such as cornstarch and powdered sugar to chemicals including dyes and pigments, its applications are vast and varied. The throughput capacity can manage a wide range of scales, from pilot plants to industrial setups. Energy-efficient features include an optional heat recovery system that optimizes the use of exhaust air, potentially lowering energy costs.

Constructed with flexible material options for durability and compatibility, the Dispersion Dryer is also available with automation features for seamless integration into existing production lines. It complies with industry-specific standards and offers customization options to fit unique processing requirements.
