Fluid Bed Dryer

A Fluid Bed Dryer is a type of equipment used for drying granular materials by fluidizing them with hot air. It is widely used in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food processing, chemicals, and minerals for drying powders, granules, crystals, and aggregates.

Description

The Fluid Bed Dryer consists of a bed of solid particles through which air is passed at a high velocity to create a fluidized state. The material to be dried is fed into the fluidized bed, where it is suspended and agitated by the flowing air. This results in efficient heat and mass transfer, leading to rapid drying of the material. The dried product is then discharged from the dryer for further processing or packaging.

Where to use

Pharmaceutical Industry: Drying of granules, powders, and particles in the production of tablets, capsules, and granules.Food Processing Industry: Drying of food products such as grains, cereals, fruits, and vegetables for preservation and packaging.Chemical Industry: Drying of chemical powders, pigments, catalysts, and intermediates in chemical manufacturing processes.Mineral Industry: Drying of minerals, aggregates, ores, and ceramics for processing and refinement.
