Fluid Bed Dryer for Salt / Fertilizer
Generally, many salts are used as sources to produce agricultural fertilizers. Potassium is one of the basic chemical ingredients used for promoting plant growth. Refined potash salts, obtained from either ores or brines, are the only economically significant sources of potassium used in fertilizers. Soluble salt minerals comprise a variety of industrially significant materials including KCl, NaCl, KNO3 and NaNO3. Alkali sulfates such as K2SO4 [...]
Food Safety through Natural Steam Pasteurization
Food Safety: Spices/Seeds/Nuts/Onion/Garlic etc. The problem of creating microbiologically-safe food with an acceptable shelf-life and quality for the consumer is a constant challenge for the food industry. Natural Steam Pasteurization involves heating a product to a specific temperature for a specific period of time. Hence, its most common method is called high temperature short time (HTST) treatment. The FDA has approved steam processing as an [...]
TEMA Process 3D model comes to life
Tema Process is specialized in thermal process solutions, like drying, cooling, roasting, sterilizing, puffing, calcining, steam stripping etc. Our fluidized bed systems are used in the chemical, food/agriculture, mineral and waste & recycling industry. Some examples: bread crumb, salts, detergent, digestate/manure, fertilizer, seeds, carbon black, cereals, clay, dextrose, spices, tomato pulp, pectine, gelatin, polymers, sand, herbicide, starch, urea, sludge, detergent, biomass, larvae, RDF, limestone, gypsum, [...]
Sugar cooling
Cooling is as important for sugar storing and sugar quality as the drying process. Like a fluid bed dryer, the fluid bed cooler also uses the principle of fluidisation for maximum exposure of surface for cooling action. The fluid bed coolers are designed to cool all kind of products at a variety of feed rates. Cooling may be intensified by means of an air cooling [...]
Potash drying in a Tema Process Fluid Bed Dryer
Potash is a potassium-rich water soluble salt. Approximately 95% of potash production is fertilizer used for agricultural purposes. The most common form of potash fertilizer is potassium chloride (KCl) but can also include potassium carbonate (K2CO3), potassium sulfate (K2SO4), or potassium nitrate (KNO3). Potash increases water retention in plants, improves crop yields, and influences the taste, texture, and nutritional value of many plants. After potash [...]
Tema Process has developed a new range of industrial-grade and pharma-grade salt fluid bed dryers
Salt is extremely soluble in water. Sea, ocean water or salt brines are the major sources of the world supply of salt. The recovery of salt from sea/brine water occurs by the evaporation of water and until the salt begins to crystallize. Crystallization occurs when the concentration of a chemical exceeds the solubility in the particular solvent. Brine (salt water) is chemically purified and by [...]
Fluid bed dryer for sand drying
Sand drying: a fluid bed dryer processes granular, free-flowing materials include sand, minerals, clays, organic salts, coal, etc. In a fluid bed, the material being dried is suspended and completely surrounded by the drying air or gas, causing that material to behave like a fluid. Besides keeping the material in a seemingly liquid state, the gas stream is the media for heat and mass exchange. [...]
Soybean processing and drying equipment [video]
Soybean processing and drying equipment. Soybean meal is an ideal protein supplement for all types of cattle feed. In the Tema process workshop the cookers and fluid bed dryers are assembled prior to the shipping. The FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) is to check the functionality and capabilities of the equipment.
China clay dryer (Kaolinite)
NEW China clay dryer. China clay is also known as Kaolinite or Kaolin Al2(OH)4Si2O5. Kaolinite is one of the most common minerals; it is mined in Malaysia, Pakistan, Vietnam, Brazil, Bulgaria, Bangladesh, France, the United Kingdom, Iran, Germany, India, Australia, South Korea, the People's Republic of China, the Czech Republic, Spain, South Africa, and the United States. The main use of the mineral kaolinite (about [...]
Drying minerals with a heavy-duty Tema Fluid Bed dryer
Drying minerals with a “heavy-duty” Tema Fluid Bed dryer. In the first stage of drying, free (surface) moisture is removed from the product and all available energy supplied as heat (gas burner) in the drying air is used for evaporation. The temperature of the air moving through the fluidized bed drops as it absorbs moisture up to its saturation point. If there is a change [...]
