Limestone Dryer: Limestone is a sedimentary rock composed primarily of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in the form of the mineral calcite. It can be used as a building material, as white pigment or filler in products such as toothpaste or paints, as a chemical feedstock for the production of lime, as a soil conditioner. Soil conditioner: Limestone is mixed with a binder to form a granule, which helps to handle, transport, or use as a final product. When limestone is granulated, the powder is mixed with a liquid binder, which then needs to be dried and the different sizes of agglomerated limestone granules. It is important that each limestone granule is dried thoroughly and evenly. The shaking fluid bed transport is gentle on product and provides true “plug flow”; first-in, first out, for more efficient drying, preventing build up, reduce dust and degradation.
