Biomass Conveying Equipment

Building a fire with wood sticks and logs is one of the most wholesome experiences. But it would take a lot of trees to heat up our homes. Instead, the fire-stoking power of plant material can be concentrated in a wood pellet, boosting its burning efficiency. However, wood pellet making equipment and machinery involves more than just the compaction of sawdust. Processing high-quality pellets from biomass can be as intricate as loading a fire-lay.

Chemical

Mineral

Due to their potential hazardous nature, chemicals are classified for proper identification and safety during production. Chemical classification depends on their properties, structures and functions. In the chemical industry, you can regard them as basic chemicals such as acids, chemical products to produce plastic materials and finished chemicals for use in cosmetology. As a manufacturer or engineer, you want to know their reactivity when using chemical processing equipment.

Chemicals

The nearly 5,000 known minerals on earth share some characteristics to be classified as minerals – they are inorganic, solid, naturally occurring elements and have a particular chemical formula and an ordered internal geometric structure. However, minerals are not all the same. One way to divide them is based on their physical characteristics such as hardness, luster, color, and shape. For example, the diamonds we use to make jewelry are very hard minerals while talc is a soft mineral; gold is a shiny mineral while others are less so.

Minerals

In operations involving bulk material handling, especially in intake stations and downstream distribution, the need for high throughput and reliable,

Pet food is a specialty food mostly based on formulated ingredients for various nutritional and dietary requirements. Pet food formulas are becoming more diverse and complex, considering the special health conditions and needs of young and aging pets that live in cities. The production of pet food is similar to processing food in general when it comes to fresh feedstock and flesh products.

Pet food

Grinders use a spinning blade or rotating abrasive elements to reduce the size of various materials. The specifications, RPM and grit of the engineered grinder, will result in various particle sizes. As a result, what you want to make will determine the type of grinder you need. Grinding is used for improving the texture and flow properties of various products and to enhance the flavor of food products such as coffee, spices, sugar, nuts, sesame, poppy seeds, lentils, wheat, and rice. Choosing the right rotational speed, grinding elements, and processing power allow the grinding and shredding of a wide range of materials into coarse or fine powders. Popular types of heavy duty grinders in food processing include angle grinders, bench grinders and meat grinders.

Grinding

Sieving machines are available in various designs such as linear sieves, tumbler sieves, and vibrating sieves each employing a different sieving action. The choice of a suitable sieving machine depends on the desired particle size distribution, required amplitude and frequency of vibrations, and the physical state of the mixture. Sieving machines are used for removing dust from granular products and for grading grains. They are also used for the classification of granular material and the separation of solids from a slurry mix in the food processing industries.

Sieving

Almost all manufacturers will require industrial storage systems and solutions at some point during their production process. The raw materials that go into your products need dedicated storage solutions to protect them from spoilage and contamination before they enter the manufacturing cycle. Storage usually refers to particular storage space. For example, having enough warehouse storage. Or clearing out a production facility for more floor space.  However, in this case, we are referring to the equipment and solutions that make storage manageable and easier. Such equipment includes solutions such as storage racks, pallet racks and shelving systems. These are just some of many storage options available to manufacturers. Advanced technology facilitates the management of heavy duty and high density tank and silo systems by automating the delivery system and linking it with the rest of the production line.

Few inventions in the history of civilizations have been as pervasive and impactful as that of paper, some 2,000 years ago. But the sheets used in documents just a few centuries ago seem like a different material compared with the paper products of our times. The refined stock that makes anything from egg trays and tissue paper to diaper linings needed other inventions to come about. These innovations are their own class of process equipment: paper pulp manufacturing technology.

Paper pulp

Compatibility with diverse heat sources

Precision drying with short residence time

High capacity and low maintenance requirements

Emission-free operation with no odors

Customizable design for versatile applications

Fruit pulp is a mass of pressed fresh fruit not meant for immediate consumption. Production of fruit pulp avoids wasting food and preserves the flavors and nutrient value of the fruit product. Processed fruit pulp is an ingredient in beverages, sauces, baby foods, jellies, smoothies, and bakery products.

Tradition and manufacturing procedures dictate the distinction between fruit juice, puree, and pulp. Still, naming and labeling are complex and depend on regulations, type of fruit, texture, consistency, preservation methods, and sugar or solid content (measured in Degrees Brix). Depending on your desired output, there are various fruit pulper machines for different stages of production that make the process quicker and more efficient.

Fruit pulp

Industrial drying machines are designed to remove moisture from your product. But the drying process must cater to variations in the state of matter and molecular structure of the input material. Industrial dryer technology exploits the modes of heat transfer (convection, conduction, radiation, evaporative cooling) to control the moisture content.

Drying

Evaporation technology is used to reduce or remove the moisture content of a mixture. Considerations for choosing suitable evaporation equipment include the moisture content in the mixture, the boiling point of the solvent, heat sensitivity of the product, and the amount of material to be processed. Evaporators are used for applications such as obtaining fruit and vegetable concentrates in the food industry, concentrating aromas and herbal extracts in the cosmetics industry, and isolating active ingredients in the pharmaceutical industry.

Evaporation

Industrial sterilization processes are employed in different industries to completely eliminate all living microorganisms from the final product. For instance, in food processing, sterilization equipment is used to produce a stable product with a long shelf-life by eradicating harmful bio-contaminants. Instead, in the medical field, sterilization technologies aim to prevent the transmission of microbes to patients by sterilizing all the tools and medical devices that come in contact with the patient. Most sterilization equipment, such as autoclaves, employs high-temperature pressurized steam to destroy bacteria and disinfect surfaces from spores. Other methods include radiation sterilization or using chemicals such as hydrogen peroxide for disinfection.

Sterilization

In various industrial applications, traditional drying methods like hot air drying have been relied upon for their versatility and low initial investment
