Built for drying higher-moisture solids, wet cakes, and pastes, the Bepex PCX dispersion flash dryer, unlike spray dryers, handles materials that cannot be easily atomized due to their higher concentrations.
High-speed dispersion plates spread feed material into a thin layer, breaking apart lumps and exposing additional surface area. The plates make possible the ability to flash dry and mill material in a single unit operation. A heated air stream carries out the evaporative load while conveying the solids from the dryer to downstream separation components.
By utilizing higher solids feed, water evaporation is significantly reduced, resulting in reduced emissions, as well as a smaller carbon and physical footprint.
