SPRAY DRYERS (DIRECT FIRED)
TEMPERATURE CONTROLS
A multi-pass high efficiency
heat exchanger was developed to heat a high volume of ambient air to 300C
in one pass. The resultant hot clean air was ducted to the spray head on the
Niro machine. With the use of high specification temperature controllers the
temperature of the air at the spray head was always kept within + / - 1C.

see 'Indirect Heating Systems' in the
Products section.
The burner was required to heat large volumes of air for spray drying applications where air contaminated with products of combustion does not affect the end product.
Excess air in-duct burners
were mounted inside the process air ductwork. The simple industrial design
guaranteed the system was 100% reliable and proved a cost effective option
to an indirect system.

Requirement: Bespoke instrumentation and controls
Our customer develops specialist catalytic products in an existing rotary calciner, however the burners and temperature controls were unreliable and inaccurate.
Proctor Process Plant designed and installed new burner controls and gas trains, together with controllers to create temperature zones along the drum allowing different temperatures in each of the zones. Optical sensors were used to read actual product temperature leaving the machine.
