Fluid-Bed Dryer Shows Higher Efficiency and Lower Costs
Ventilex BV of Holland will be showing its 1m2 fluid-bed dryer featuring shaking bed at this year's Powtech exhibition. The company will be assisted at the show by its sole agent in the UK, Orthos Engineering.
Said to be smaller and cheaper to install than rotary drum plants of comparable capacities, and also combining increased efficiency with lower running costs, the Ventilex dryer design has been widely applied to the drying of a considerable range of materials and industrial minerals.
It generates a plug-flow movement of material through the dryer and sub-fluidisation of the product which, combined with the system's ability to heat the drying air to a temperature of 550°C, is claimed to ensure high efficiency, reduced fuel/power consumption and uniform product quality.
