Copper sulphate/sulfate, blue stone, blue vitriol are all common names for Copper Sulfate Pentahydrate (CuS04.5H20), which is the best known and the most widely used of the copper salts. Copper Sulfate drying: The pentahydrate (CuSO4·5H2O), the most commonly encountered salt, is bright blue. Copper sulfate is produced industrially by treating copper metal with hot concentrated sulfuric acid or its oxides with dilute sulfuric acid. Copper sulfate pentahydrate is often used as a fungicide. To prevent calcining (loss of moisture, changing […]

New Twin Sand Fluid Bed Dryers/Coolers for a client in Belgium. The sand needs to be dried to the required moisture content before it can be sold or further processed. The moisture content in sand from stockpiles can vary from 4% to 8%. The sand drying system are typically specified to reduce output moisture content to 0.5%.

Custom made fluid bed systems for Thermal Treatment of Food products. Fluid bed dryers are not only used for drying but also used for cooling, roasting, cooking, puffing, sterilizing, stripping or baking of food products (breadcrumb, lactose, lemon peel, meat products, starch, seeds, spices, cocoa, cereals, rice,sugar, salt etc.) Customer made dryers are specially designed to dry at a precise temperature and humidity level that is regulated to preserve texture, taste, and color of the product. The product is never […]

KCl drying: Potash is typically rich in potassium chloride (KCl), sodium chloride (NaCl) and other salts, and is obtained by dissolution mining and evaporation methods from brines.
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). After potash is mined it is processed to create a commercial product.

Sea salt is salt produced from the evaporation of seawater. Its use is practical only in warm climates where the evaporation rate exceeds the precipitation rate, either annually or for extended periods, and ideally, where there are steady prevailing winds. When an adequate layer of salt has built up on the pan floor, harvesting commences. A machine digs up the salt, deposits it onto a conveyor belt, which carries it to trucks. Contracted workers also harvest by hand. The raw salt is […]

Transport: approx. 95% of all our fluid bed dryers/coolers is exported (worldwide).
The mode of transportation is an important consideration when planning the shipment process. Besides the costs, the urgency of the shipment, the value of the goods being shipped as well as the size and weight of the goods need to be evaluated when determining the form of transportation.

Lactose drying: Lactose is a disaccharide. It is a sugar composed of galactose and glucose. Lactose makes up around 2–8% of milk (by weight). TEMA Process engineered, manufactured and installed a hygienic Fluid Bed Dryer for the drying of Lactose. The rapid heat and mass transfer rates between the product and the drying medium and rapid mixing of solids which leads to nearly isothermal conditions throughout the fluidized layer, makes the fluid bed dryer a ideal system to dry the […]

Fluid bed dryers are the industrial dryers of choice when it comes to drying of sand. The sand fluid bed drying equipment is able to process both construction sand and frac sand effectively. Typically, the sand is mined, washed and screened and stored in piles for supply of various grades. The sand needs to be dried to the required moisture content before it can be sold or further processed (packaged).

Busy times ! At the moment our service organisation is very busy with replacing old fluid bed dryers from our competitors. These dryers are at their end of their life cycle and are replaced by latest generation of TEMA Fluid Bed Dryers.
