Rolling bed dryer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rolling bed dryers are used for efficiently processing large amounts of material that need their respective moisture levels reduced. Rolling bed dryers are most often used for drying wood chips and organic residues and are most often utilized in the biomass, waste/recycling, wood particle board, pellet, and biofuel industries.[1]
The versatility of the rolling bed dryer is based on its simple idea of product circulation. The biomass processed through the rolling bed dryer can be not only efficiently dried but also has the option of being cleaned simultaneously. This provides for efficiency and conservation in energy which results in lower production costs. Biomass is being increasingly used as an alternative fuel source.[2] Providing for this demands innovative solutions.[3]
