Fluid-bed dryers prove best for California cheese
A Ventilex continuous fluid bed dryer provided the complete solution of increased cheese output for Castle Importing of California, while giving the drying process control needed to maintain quality
Smaller and cheaper to install than rotary drum plants of comparable capacities, and also combining increased efficiency with lower running costs, the Ventilex dryer design has been widely applied to the drying of a considerable range of materials and industrial minerals, including the preparation of sands for dry silo mortars.
It generates a plug-flow movement of material through the dryer and sub-fluidisation of the product which, combined with the system ability to heat the drying air to a temperature of 550C, is claimed to ensure high efficiency, reduced fuel/power consumption and uniform product quality.
Operational versatility is ensured by the ease with which fluidisation and speed of product movement through the plant can be adjusted to match specific process requirements. Request a free brochure from Orthos (Engineering) ...
