Drying Chamber
Drying Chamber
In Drying Chamber, Atomized liquid and hot air from the air disperser come in intimate contact . With the intense direct contact, heat and mass transfer occurs between the two phases. Due to the large surface area created by the fine atomization, drying is very rapid and occurs in a matter of seconds. Drying can be co-current/counter current depending on the particular application. The chamber can be a flat roof design (with rotary/nozzle atomizer), top cone design (nozzle atomizer), tall form design with a bustle construction (for coarser powder), two stage design (with subsequent drying in a fluid bed dryer), with an integrated fluid bed (placed in the bottom cone of the chamber).
