Salt industry

Tema Process supplies advanced fluid beds for salt drying applications ( sea-salt, rock salt , vacuum salt or brines) in a large range of capacities , manufactured in corrosion resistant AISI-316 and other grades.

Salt, or Sodium Chloride, is essential for life , weather for human beings or animals, and it’s history for production goes back a long time. Weather produced by natural evaporation in ponds, or mined as rock salt, in the upgrading process to clean salt crystals, salt drying is a crucial step. Tema Process supplies advanced fluid beds for salt drying applications ( sea-salt, rock salt , vacuum salt or brines) in a large range of capacities , manufactured in corrosion resistant AISI-316 and other grades. Smart designs for heat recovery can be integrated to reduce the operational cost.

TEMA Process supplies Fluid Bed Dryers/coolers for the production of salt

Salt is crucial for many industries and is used all over the world and is marketed in many forms: as a semi-finished product in artificial fertilizer for example but also as a salt for the food industry. TEMA Process supplies Fluid Bed Dryers/coolers for the production of salt. For high-grade salt, all the parts of the dryer which are in contact with the salt are in stainless steel AISI 316L , continuous-welded and polished. The system can also be equipped with a CIP ‘Cleaning-in-Place’ systems. Therefor we are able to meet the high demands required by the food industry. The heating of the air can be done using either through an indirect (steam coils) or direct (natural gas burner) source of energy. TEMA Process offers dust collection & gas scrubbing equipment and systems for emission control, gas cleaning and product recovery. For the exhaust system a cyclone with a wet scrubber (plastic or stainless steel), a Venturi scrubber or a Jet bag-Filter can be used. Important criteria for the design of a exhaust air system are: Temperature of the exhaust air, amount of dust in exhaust air, particle size of the dust, local emission standards and materials of construction.

Sea salt drying

SEA Salt drying: Sea salt is a natural salt originating from the evaporation of sea water by the effect of sun and wind that crystallizes into grain sea salt collected by mechanical system, without any other process that alters its natural properties and original chemical composition. Depending on the moisture content and the size of grain, the sea salt can be classified into Wet Sea Salt and Dry Sea Salt. Wet Salts: Are all those Sea Salts that have not undergone an artificial drying process and some retain the natural moisture content up to a maximum of 4%. Dry Salts: Are all those Sea Salts which have undergone a process dewatering (centrifuge) , drying (fluid bed dryer) and sieving to select a specific granulometry. Their main characteristic is a maximum moisture content of 0.1%
