Fluid Bed Dryers are designed to dry products as they float on a cushion of air or gas. The process air is supplied to the bed through a special perforated distributor plate and flows through the bed of solids at a velocity sufficient to support the weight of particles in a fluidized state. Bubbles form and collapse within the fluidized bed of material, promoting intense particle movement. In this state, the solids behave like a free flowing boiling liquid. Very high heat and mass transfer values are obtained as a result of the intimate contact with the solids and the differential velocities between individual particles and the fluidized gas. Often products are required in agglomerate or granular form to achieve good instant properties and so fluid bed dryers may be combined with spray drying, agglomeration, or granulation systems.
This type of dryer can be used in a batch of continuous process. The product flows across a perforated bed in the dryer. Hot air is blown up through the perforated bed causing the product to flow in the air stream. Continuous beds vibrate to move the product through the dryer. Batch type have agitator to keep the product moving through the air stream. Found mostly in pharmaceutical and food (dairy) plants.

We provide Continuous Fluid Bed Dryer. This Open cycle systems features pressure shock resistant components or alternatively semi-closed cycle, self-inertizing configuration can be considered depending upon the product. Usually a push-pull system is used to balance the pressure to slightly negative in the free board of the fluid bed. Depending upon the product and available heat source, direct or indirect heating may be applied. Then the exhaust air is cleaned by bag filter, cyclone with or without wet scrubber.

We provide Integrated Fluid Bed Dryer for agglomeration. Such systems are generally used for food products like coffee, cocoa-sugar, where instant properties and coarse particles are required.
In this Integrated Fluid Bed Dryer, a fine powder is conveyed to an agglomeration chamber where the powder is dispersed in air and contacted with a spray of liquid. Moist, porous agglomerates are formed and subsequently dried under lenient fluidization conditions. Once it is cooled, the powder is discharged, classified, and fines recycled for further agglomeration together with fines from the exhaust air dust collector.
