Flash dryer for surface moisture removal in powders
For industries dealing with powders, pastes, and slurries, achieving uniform moisture content is critical. Traditional drying methods often result in inconsistent product quality and high energy costs. There is a need for a solution that ensures even drying without compromising product integrity.
Rapid drying with uniform moisture content.
The flash dryer by Dedert is designed for easy-to-dry products that only require surface moisture removal. It combines air conveying and drying in a single pass, where solids are introduced and dried within seconds. This short residence time ensures that materials are not exposed to high heat for extended periods, preserving their quality. The system’s open-circuit configuration utilizes ambient fresh air to prevent contamination, and its versatility allows it to handle fine, sticky, or heat-sensitive materials. Additionally, Dedert offers a Partial Gas Recycle configuration to enhance energy efficiency by recirculating the exhaust stream, making it suitable for integrating with various heat sources. Ideal for industries such as plant-based protein, starch & grains, chemicals, food ingredients, and biofuels, the flash dryer produces consistent particle size distribution with low operational costs.
