Working Principles

>> Fluidized Bed Dryer works on a principle of fluidization of the feed materials.
>> In fluidization process, hot air is introduced at high pressure through a perforated bed of moist solid particulate.
>> The wet solids are lifted from the bottom and suspended in a stream of air (fluidized state).
>> The hot gas Surrounding every granule to completely dry them. Thus, materials or granules are uniformly dried.

  • The wet granules to be dried are placed in a detachable bowl. The bowl is inserted in the drier.
  • Fresh air can pass through a prefilter, which is then heated when passing through a heat exchanger.
  • Hot air flows through the bottom of the bowl.
  • At the same time, Blower fan start to rotate.
  • The air speed increases gradually.
  • When the velocity of air is greater than the sedimentation rate of the granules, the granules remain suspended in the gas stream. After specific time, a pressure point is reached in which the friction drag on a particle is equal to the force of gravity. The granules rise in the container due to high gas velocity of 1.5 to 7.5 meter per minute and then fall back. This state is known as fluidized state.
  • The gas surround to each granule do dry them completely.
  • The air comes out of the dryer passing through the filters in the bag.
  • The entrained particles remain adhered to the interior surface of bags.
  • Periodically bags are shaken to remove entrained particles.
