The drying of sand, aggregates, limestone, clay, talc, kaolin, feldspar, potash, phosphates, salt, slag, frac sand, and gravel is primarily focused on maximizing return on investment through reduced energy consumption and lower operating costs.
Shaking fluid bed dryers are widely used for drying both raw and pre-processed minerals. The unique TEMA Process shaking drive mechanism ensures uniform fluidization and consistent drying performance across a wide particle size distribution, ranging from 100 microns to 30 mm. Unlike conventional fluid bed systems, the shaking motion prevents disturbances in the fluid bed and promotes even heat transfer throughout the product layer.
This innovative design enables reliable operation with varying feed characteristics while maintaining high thermal efficiency and product quality. The technology is suitable for capacities of up to 100 tonnes per hour in a single unit, making it an ideal solution for large-scale mineral processing operations where energy efficiency, throughput, and operational reliability are critical.
