AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The process effectively reduces costs and ensures safety by achieving high dryness levels while avoiding explosive risks, with energy savings and flexibility in process conditions, allowing for a product with a dry substance fraction of 80% or higher at reduced operational costs.

Problems solved by technology

Although they are advantageous and achieve their purpose, these solutions are not without drawbacks such as rather high costs for making and managing the drying plant, due to the high cost of inert gases and the energy consumption due to their use in the drying process.

example

[0070]In a turbodrier A made from special stainless steel AISI 304 of the type schematically described above, in which the bladed rotor is made to rotate at a peripheral speed of about 35 m / s and in which the inner wall is kept at 240° C., a continuous flow of a residual sludge from a purification process of sewage, having a water content equal to 80% by weight, is fed with a flow rate of 1000 kg / hour through the inlet opening of the turbodrier.

[0071]Immediately at the inlet of the turbodrier A, the flow of sludge is mechanically dispersed into minute particles, which are immediately centrifuged against the inner wall of the turbodrier, where they form a dynamic thin tubular layer.

[0072]After a residence time of about 2 minutes in the turbodrier A, from the outlet opening thereof 285 kg of sludge is discharged in disgregated wet solid form at a temperature of 80° C. and having a humidity content of 30% by weight, which is fed continuously into the drier B, in particular a drier of t...
