The TEMA Fluid Bed systems are used for drying and/or cooling of:

Mineral Industry

Fluid bed dryers are used for processing natural materials, our systems are designed to minimize energy usage, easy to maintain and operate, rigid
construction for challenging environments. The systems are used for drying, cooling, calcining, dedusting, etc

Examples:

Sand
quartz sand
silica sand
gypsum
slag sand
limestone
kaolin
potash
phosphates
coal
mineral ores
etc.

Food and Feed Industry

Fluid bed systems are used for a wide variety of food and feed ingredients, hygienic design as requested in this industry with gentle and even drying to preserve the quality of the materials. Special executions with CIP, GMP design, increased residence time, operating with low oxygen levels are available. The systems are used for drying, cooling, roasting, expanding, removal of solvents, cooking, decontamination, deactivating, etc.

Examples:

Bread crumbs
rice
sugar
dextrose
herbs,
spices
flaked cereals
extruded cereals
milk powder
lactose
tomato pulp
citrus pulp
fish meal
fish feed
animal feed
return bread
etc

Chemical Industry

In the chemical industry fluid bed dryers are used to dry all kinds of crystalline materials, powders, extrudates, etc. Special care is taken to select the correct material of construction, minimize effluent to the environment, reduce energy consumption. Systems are used for drying, cooling, removal of solvents, chemical reactions, etc.

Examples:

Salts,
sodium chloride
herbicides
CMC
detergents
ammonium sulphate
sodium sulphate
potassium sulphate
polymers
PVC
PVDC
fertilizers
plastics
EPS
fibres
coopper
sulphate
metal salts
etc.

Biomass and Waste Industry

In the biomass and waste industry fluid bed dryers are used to dry biomass materials and solid waste materials, sludges and slurries, in order to increase the heating value for biomass and alternative fuels and reduce the volume. Drying takes normally place at lower temperatures between 100 – 200 gr. C by use of waste heat from CHP or boilers.

Examples:

RDF
poultry
litter
cow dung
dewatered slurry
digester sludge
fermenter waste
lemon peel
orange peel
manure
paper sludge
wood
biomass
etc.
