Classifies and driesFaster-drying spherical particles (with the most surface area for their weight), as well as any shape or size of particle with lower moisture content, convey faster throughpasses 2, 3 and 4 as a result of the increasing air velocities. Heavier (wetter) particles convey more slowly. This allows multiple drying rates to occur simultaneously. Each particle - no matter what size, shape, or incoming moisture - departs the dryer system at your desired moisture content.Helps prevent pollutionVelocity increases cause only water to evaporate - not other organics in the product. This helps the QuadPass dryer meet air permit limitations. In most cases, new replacement drums and high-efficiency particulate collectors allow increased drying capacity at lower pollution levels.Reduces fire dangerThe QuadPass dryer's unique feed arrangement all but eliminates operating dryer drum fires. Because the wet feed solids enter the drum off-center, away from the blow torch of hot gases, the feedis less likely to catch on fire from ove
r exposure to heat. The non-rotating end plate at the dryer's feed end allows for safe and complete man-access for internal drum inspection.Stainless steel insulationUnlike mineral wool, the QuadPass drum's air gap insulation never breaks down. The stainless steel skin reflects radiant energy back into the dryer. The steel drum never exceeds product temperature; in most cases it stays far below air outlet temperature.
