Bulk Material without Agitation Drying
When drying bulk materials, many operators have faced a dilemma. The spinning in a centrifuge can leave scratches on the surfaces. And without centrifuging, the bulk material remains wet. So, what to do? In fact, there is an alternative on the market that can completely dry bulk materials without agitation.
More than 20 years ago, the drying equipment manufacturer Harter after a long development period, a special solution implemented: The drying of bulk material either completely static or with minimal intermittent movement. Hundreds of bulk material dryers, the Allgäu company has since then developed and implemented. Nevertheless, the opinion persists, that this is not possible. This circum stance, Harter can with its condensation drying with heat pump always repeatedly disprove. Through re ference visits with customers and through drying tests in the technical center on site. “Here, interested parties can the performance of our technology for their specific portfolio,” explains Reinhold Specht, Managing Partner at Harter. In the test series, the relevant parameters such as time, temperature, humidity, air volume flow, air velocity and airflow are extensively tested and determined. Specht adds: “The drying tests serve as the basis for the design of the dryer. This approach has proven itself more than effective over the decades.”
