Advantages of horizontal multi-chamber fluidized bed dryer
The advantages of a horizontal multi-chamber fluidized bed dryer are as follows:
1. The structure is simple, the manufacture is convenient, and there are no moving parts;
2. Small footprint, easy to discharge and easy to operate;
3. High drying rate and high elasticity;
4. For heat sensitive materials, use a lower temperature for drying and the particles will not be destroyed.
Of course, horizontal multi-chamber fluidized bed dryers also have shortcomings:
1. Thermal efficiency is lower compared to other types of fluidized bed dryers;
2. It is less adaptable to multi-species small yield materials.
In order to overcome the shortcomings of appeal, the commonly used measures are:
1. With a grid feeder, the material can be spread as evenly as possible over the bed;
2. Smooth processing in the dryer, preferably with rounded corners, eliminating the dead angle of each chamber orifice;
3. The operation strives for stability. Oxygen vibrating feeders are sometimes used to make the bed fluidized and stable.
