Horizontal Dryer
Many production processes generate water and/or solvent-moist intermediate products that must be dried before further processing, distribution, or disposal is possible. Drying is often carried out in two steps: an upstream, less energy-intensive mechanical method for expelling the main moisture (e.g. filter) and the subsequent thermal final drying. BHS horizontal dryers AVA HTC-T and HTK-T are used in the cellulose industry, as dryers for flame retardants in the chemical industry, and for evaporating high-boiling substances (for example, hydrocarbons) from contaminated environmental industry substances under vacuum conditions.
Benefits at a glance:
• Short drying times
• Adjustable process parameters
• Uniform temperature & product moisture
• Efficient drying of even highly viscous products
• Vacuum & high pressure operation
Short drying times in batch and continuous mode
The product fed into the machine comes into direct contact with the heated drying elements (drum, head ends and/or shaft, and shovels) and is continuously shifted by the rotating agitator. Half-pipe coils or double jackets are available for heating the drum. Thermal oil or steam are most commonly used as heating fluid, or an electric heater can be used for high-temperature applications.
