  • Publication number: 20200348078
    Abstract: Modular system of drying humid material, comprising a drier housing having a material inlet and outlet, a drying gas inlet and outlet, a particle separator downstream of drier housing. Drier housing comprises drying chambers. The system further comprises an air fan, and a heater. A gas duct connecting drying gas inlet and drying gas outlet defines a closed loop. A condenser is arranged in gas duct. Drying chambers comprises a rotary impeller means, and drying gas inlets. A dried-hot product cooler comprising a housing having a dried-hot product inlet, a cooled dried product outlet, a cool air supply means, and a fan arranged to draw cooled air through dried hot product in cooler.

  • Patent number: 6748670
    Abstract: Method of drying a medium for producing a porous matrix from a solution, a paste, an extract, a granulated material or such, where a liquid inert agent is fed into a vessel (5) at controlled pressure and amount through a valve (7), transferring the pressurized liquid inert agent to a mixing vessel (4), said mixing vessel (4) also receiving the solution, such as paste, extract or granulated material, through an inlet valve (10), adjusting the pressure and temperature inside the mixing vessel (4) to desired levels by a release valve (6), upon complete mixing of the inert agent with the solution, the mixture is expanded into a porous matrix and injected into a drying circuit through a drying chamber (3), the matrix thereby being kept suspended in the drying chamber by the flowing drying medium, supplied by the blower (2), the matrix moisture being removed from the mixture through a heat exchanger coil comprising a first heat exchanger (11) where the water vapour is condensed and removed from the circuit and fina
