Erection and Commissioning of a Fluid Bed Dryer/Cooler for Minerals.
Successfully completed the erection and commissioning of a fluid bed dryer/cooler for mineral processing. The scope included mechanical installation, electrical and instrumentation works, and comprehensive pre-commissioning activities. Following installation, dry commissioning was carried out to verify airflow, temperature control, and safety systems. Operational commissioning with mineral material allowed optimisation of process parameters to achieve stable fluidisation and reliable drying and cooling performance. The project was [...]

Energy Savings in a Tema Sand Dryer/Cooler System
Optimizing industrial drying and cooling processes can result in significant energy savings. One effective method is recirculating the exhaust air from the cooling section back to the dryer’s air inlet. - The cooler exhaust air, typically at 50–60 °C, still contains valuable thermal energy. - By reusing this air, energy savings of 10–15% can be achieved. - This reduces the need for fresh heated air and [...]
On-Site Fluidized Bed Test Dryers for Complex Processes
For certain products, the drying or cooling process is too complex to be accurately tested at the Tema Process laboratory. This may be due to specific upstream process conditions, sensitive material behavior, large particle size distributions, safety requirements, or integration with existing plant equipment. For these applications, Tema Process supplies laboratory and pilot-scale fluidized bed test dryers that are installed and operated at the customer’s [...]
Erection & Commissioning | TEMA Process Bio-Coal Belt Dryer
We successfully completed the erection and commissioning of a TEMA Process bio-coal belt dryer. From foundation checks and mechanical installation to belt alignment, air-handling systems, and safety integration — every step was executed with a strong focus on safety, quality, and performance. The multi-zone belt dryer is engineered for energy-efficient and uniform drying of bio-coal, offering precise temperature control, optimized airflow distribution, and a low-dust [...]
Potash Drying with TEMA Process Fluid Bed Dryers
Potash is a potassium-rich, water-soluble salt, and around 95% of global production is used as fertilizer. The most common form is potassium chloride (KCl), but potash fertilizers may also include K₂CO₃, K₂SO₄, or KNO₃. These nutrients play a vital role in agriculture—improving water retention, crop yields, and even the taste and nutritional value of many plants. After potash is mined, it must be processed into [...]

Processing Technologies for Breadcrumbs
Breadcrumbs are produced in a continuous, controlled process to ensure uniform color, texture, and particle size. A specially formulated dough—yeast-fermented or non-yeasted for lighter crumbs like Panko—is mixed from wheat flour, water, salt, and optional ingredients. The dough is formed into sheets or blocks with rollers or extruders and baked in a tunnel oven, where moisture is reduced and structure and color are developed. After [...]
TEMA’s fluid bed dryers for LiOH
For lithium hydroxide monohydrate, it is essential to dry it at a temperature and humidity that avoids removing the water of crystallization, which would turn it into anhydrous LiOH or cause it to react with carbon dioxide. To achieve dry lithium hydroxide monohydrate, the wet salt needs to be dried, keeping the monohydrate stage, and without removing crystalline water. The drying system uses a CO2 [...]
