Fluidized Bed Dryer is essential equipment in which a continuous feed of wet particulate material is dried, cooled by contact with hot or cold air that is blown through to maintain the material in a fluidized state. Fluid bed dryers are often in line with the spray dryer process in two or three stage drying.

SVAAR Process Solution offers Fluid Bed for food and chemical drying applications. Fluid Bed dryers are used extensively for the drying of wet particulate and granular materials that can be fluidized, and even slurries, pastes, and suspensions that can be fluidized in beds of inert solids. They are commonly used in processing many products such as chemicals, carbohydrates, foodstuff, biomaterials, beverage products, ceramics, pharmaceuticals in powder or agglomerated form, healthcare products, pesticides and agrochemicals, dyestuffs and pigments, detergents and surface-active agents, fertilizers, polymer and resins, tannins, products for calcination, combustion, incineration, waste management processes, and environmental protection processes.

The fluid bed dryer system blows hot drying air through the holes of a perforated plate. The wet particles are lifted from the bottom and cause the particles to behave as a fluid. The air velocity is adjusted to keep the moving layer of material fluidized. A fluid bed dryer is an effective unit to thermally treat powders, crystalline products, pelletized or extruded materials. High heat and mass transfer are obtained as a result of the intimate contact between fluidizing air and product.

Advantages of Fluid Bed Dryer

Low energy consumption compared to other type of dryers

Accurate control of the residence time, product is dried uniformly

Gentle on sensitive materials (no friction)

Low operating costs

Cooling section integrated in dryer

Handling of sticky products (from centrifuges or filters)

Small footprint

Process flexibility

Reliable system, less downtime

Features of Fluid Bed Dryer

Uniformity of product quality

The fluidized-bed dryer employs a specially structured dispersion plate to create a uniform fluidized state, which prevents products from uneven drying.

Easy adjustment of retention time

The desired retention time can be set by adjusting the height of the fluidized bed by controlling discharge rate of dried material.

Easy maintenance

No internal moving parts make maintenance easy.

High thermal efficiency

By installing a heating element inside the dryer, higher thermal efficiency can be obtained and the dryer size and amount of exhaust gas becomes smaller.

Application

Food Industry

Chemical Industry

Mineral processing

Polymer industry
