Vibratory Fluidised Bed Dryer
Vibratory Fluidised Bed Dryer
Vibratory Fluidised Bed Dryer is an extension of fluidised bed techniques, by using vibrations as an external aid to fluidisation. All materials cannot be fluidized because of one or more of the following reasons:
1. Excessive moisture
2. Strong surface forces
3. Wide particle size distribution
4. Fine Powder
5. Product characteristics
Some of the materials having such properties can also be fluidized well with the air of mechanical vibrations. Vibrations breakup the inter-particle forces of attraction and improve quality of fluidization. Bubbling of hot air in a stationary fluid bed may cause violent agitation. When vibrations are used as an air, gas velocities are reduced and the fluidisation is gentle. Particle attrition is reduced. Thus substances having low mechanical strength can be dried without damage.
There are two methods of imparting vibrations:
a) Constant Force System
b) Constant Displacement System.
Choice is exercised based on application.
PRINCIPLE
KILBURN-CARRIER’s unique vibration technology gives you the power to convey and process with a single self-contained unit – classify, combine, dry, cool, heat and mix materials from the most delicate grains to the bulkiest ores.
We build each unit to order, working hand-in-hand with customer’s engineering team to tailor each piece of equipment to match product type, process parameters, and upstream/ downstream capabilities. Designed to withstand your industry’s most demanding sanitary specifications, industrial construction and environmental codes. Our Total Systems Process Warranty assures complete confidence for your application.
WORKING OFVIBRATING FLUID BED DRYER
VIBRATING FLUID BED SYSTEMS
In technical collaboration with CARRIER Vibrating Equipment, USA, KILBURN presents an advanced concept- Vibrating Fluid Bed Dryer/Coolers. Since 1950, CARRIER is recognised as the industry leader in design and manufacture of vibratory equipment.
Expertise developed with over 40,000 installations of vibratory equipment is supplemented by KILBURNs experience in design and supply of such equipment.
From fine powder to hot castings, this unique method of processing with vibration has served all major industries around the world, providing the most efficient systems to simultaneously convey and process materials
FLUID-FLOW VIBRATING FLUID BED SYSTEMS
KILBURN-CARRIER Vibrating Fluid Bed Systems are specially designed to provide a continuous passage of air through the product bed giving you a more efficient drying and cooling process at a minimum retention time because contact surface area is maximized. Our unique one-step processing allows to classify materials safely while drying, cooling, heating and mixing.
KEL provides a drying solution that is specifically designed by order. The individual customized designing process helps us create solutions that will improve the quality of product by means of the most suitable processing.
– Ease in operation maintenance.
– Optimum ease of Process Control.
– Eliminates hot spots accelerates reactions.
