Shaking Fluidised Bed Dryer operates at product temperatures up to 400˚C

The Shaking Fluidised Bed Dryer, also known as the Tema Process Dryer, thermally treats powders, crystalline products, and pelletised materials through fluidised air contact, achieving the desired final moisture content.

Gerrit du Plessis, Product Specialist at Multotec, notes that the shaking motion enhances fluidisation and transport, making it an energy-efficient solution for reducing moisture in products. “This dryer can operate at product temperatures up to 400˚C, using various mediums such as air, steam, and inert gas,” he says.

It is particularly beneficial for industries requiring final drying steps, such as the food industry, which seeks to alter taste, flavour, and texture. The dryer’s design allows for the use of high-temperature-resistant materials, reducing energy costs and maintenance.

Integrated Solution

By combining the H450 Conturbex Centrifuge, Shaking Fluidised Bed Dryer, MA Oryx Pump, and stainless steel cyclone into an integrated solution, Multotec offers clients the ability to produce high-quality products that meet customer demands in terms of dryness, purity, and flow characteristics. Multotec draws on its extensive experience, supported by its OEM sister companies Siebtechnik Tema and Tema Process, to deliver tailored solutions for local and international markets.

This integrated approach reinforces Multotec’s position as a versatile and innovative leader in the industry, committed to advancing local manufacturing and delivering cutting-edge solutions.

Multotec’s technology and expertise has optimised recoveries and reduced costs on mines around the world for over 50 years, making the company a global leader in metallurgy and process engineering.
