Increasing production capacity ! We have completed the expansion of our production/assembly facility in Wapenveld, the Netherlands.

Spray drying is a method of producing a dry powder from a liquid by rapidly drying with a hot gas. This is the preferred method of drying of many thermally sensitive food products, like milk powder, proteins, vitamins, nutraceutical etc, A fine powder is produced with a spray dryer but it can have a poor product flow.
Instead of drying the liquid in one stage, drying is done through two steps: the first step is the spray dryer. In the second […]

Food safety ! Natural sterilization/pasteurization of products with pure steam has gained significantly in popularity with the introduction of the continuous HT-ST “In-Flow” steam decontamination process.
The very short contact (20-40 seconds) with high pressure steam (autoclave) at a temperature that may vary between 102°C and 122°C makes it possible to decontaminate heat sensitive food products without adverse effect on quality.
After the thermal steam treatment, the product is dried on a fluid bed dryer.
Suitable for spices, herbs, seeds, nuts etc. #steam#sterilizer

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 50% of the time) is the production of paper, its use ensures the gloss on some […]

Heated process air is supplied to a special perforated distributor bed plate. Via the bed plate the hot air flows through the layer of solids at a velocity sufficient to support the weight of particles in a fluidized state. The heat in the air is used to evaporate moisture from the product. The drying air picks up moisture and cools down during the evaporation. This means that for example the supply air can be 90°C but as a result of […]

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 in the moisture content of the feed or in the feed rate, the temperature of the air […]

Sodium Sulfate Na2SO4 drying. Fluid bed dryers are today’s standard of technology for drying and cooling of all kind of salts. Sodium Sulfate: the largest use is as filler in powdered home laundry detergents, consuming approx. 50% of world production. The glass industry provides another significant application for sodium sulfate.

Chicken manure is the feces of chickens used as an organic fertilizer, especially for soil low in nitrogen. Of all animal manures, it has the highest amount of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Chicken manure is sometimes pelletized for use as a fertilizer, and this product may have additional phosphorus, potassium or nitrogen added. Optimal storage conditions for chicken manure includes it being kept in a covered area. Tema Process has already build several fluid bed dryer/coolers for drying (chicken) manure […]

TEMA Process Hygienic Cyclones are used to separate the fine particles from the exhaust air of the fluid bed dryer/cooler and full fills the requirements for use in highly sanitary applications in industries such as food and chemical industry. Tema engineers and manufactures sanitary cyclones according to the requirements of the food and dairy industry, including a wide range of sanitary and industrial Clean-in-Place (CIP) systems. Resulting in an improved operational hygiene and cleaning efficiency due to reproducible cleaning processes […]

Four food dryers (total 8), ready for transport to China 🇨🇳. Whenever a hygienic or sanitary design has high priority, fluid bed systems are the preferred solution in the food industry. The Fluid beds are used for drying, cooling, roasting, expanding, sterilizing and cooking. For gentle drying at lower temperatures and extended drying time, TEMA Process fluid bed dryers can use multiple temperature zones with air recycle for energy saving.
