What is biosolids dryer?
Biosolids dryer is a direct contact drum type dryer. It is capable of handling a wide range of sludge, providing the capability to dry Class A biosolids with a solids content of over 90%.
Biosolid dryer is suitable for drying wood chips, shavings, barley straw, wood chippings, oat straw, wheat straw, rye straw, rice straw, sawdust, bamboo chips, sorghum straw, culm and corn straw as well as potato vines and bean stalks, including soybean straw, broad bean straw, pea straw, cowpea straw, lupine straw and peanut vines and other materials.
Working principle of biosolids dryer
The material enters the inner layer of the rotary drum by the feeding device to achieve downstream drying, and the material is continuously copied up and scattered under the copying board of the inner layer to achieve heat exchange in a spiral marching type, and the material moves to the other end of the inner layer to enter the middle layer for counter-current drying, and the material is repeatedly raised into the middle layer in a marching way of two steps in and one step out, and the material of the middle layer not only completely absorbs the heat emitted from the inner drum, but also absorbs the heat emitted from the middle drum. At the same time, it prolongs the drying time, and the material reaches the best drying state here. The material travels to the other end of the middle layer and falls into the outer layer, the material travels in a rectangular multi-loop way in the outer roller, the material that achieves the drying effect quickly travels under the action of hot air and discharges the roller, the wet material that does not achieve the drying effect cannot travel quickly because of its own weight, the material is fully dried in this rectangular copying plate, thus completing the drying purpose.
Composition of biosolids dryer
| Part | Description |
| Vacuum tank | The vacuum tank is a jacketed inter-wall heat transfer type, the outer wall insulation structure, the upper part of which is equipped with vacuum filter interface (connected with stainless steel sintered mesh vacuum filter), material entrance (for equipment maintenance and solid material input), thermal medium import and export, temperature gauge orifice, pressure gauge orifice, etc. |
| Stirring shaft | The rake arm is welded on the stirring shaft, and the rake arm is equipped with a rake blade (also called copying board) with inclination above the rake arm. The rake blade near the barrel clears the materials attached to the barrel wall during the rotation process, so that the heat transfer surface between the walls is constantly updated, which is conducive to material mixing and heat transfer. |
| Rotary seal | The rotary seal between the shaft and the end cover is equipped with mechanical seal according to the material and process requirements. |
| End cover | End cover is equipped with sight glass and rotating seal, bearing seat, etc. |
| Frame | Frame is set up the vacuum rake dryer transmission device components, generally using channel steel or thick-walled square tube and other production. |
| Vacuum filter | configured with stainless steel sintered mesh vacuum filter, which is removable and easy to clean. As the general material is dried to a certain degree after most of the solvent evaporates before the peak of dust carrying wave, the use of pulse back-blowing at this time has little effect on solvent recovery, therefore, the vacuum filter can be equipped with compressed air pulse back-blowing and online ash cleaning according to the material characteristics and process requirements. |
| Discharge device | Discharge device consists of valve seat, sealing gasket, valve plate, manual screw, etc. |
| Transmission mechanism | The transmission mechanism is composed of motor and reducer, the reducer and stirring shaft are directly connected by coupling, and the belt drive between the reducer and motor can avoid the damage to the stirring shaft or seal when the stirring paddle and tank are jammed and undetected due to the unforeseen debris entering the tank. In order to protect the continuous effectiveness of the rotary seal, the drive motor is generally selected with frequency control. |
Features of biosolids dryer
a. Automatic control can ensure that the moisture of the dried wood chips is even and stable.
b. Automatic de-stoning and iron removal can ensure that the impurities of the dried wood chips do not enter the later process.
c. The investment required for the equipment is 1/6 of foreign imported products.
d. The thermal efficiency of self-insulation of the cylinder body is up to 70% or more (the thermal efficiency of traditional single cylinder dryer is only 35%), improving the thermal efficiency by more than 50%.
e. Adopting tail drive, the transmission is more stable and reliable; completely changing the phenomenon that the rotation of the carrier wheel often slips and affects the production.
f. Compared with the single
drum dryer, the biosolids dryer has about 50% less land occupation, about 50% less civil construction investment and 60% less power consumption.
g. A variety of circumferential lifting material combination distribution, effective control of drying time. Good drying effect.
h. The final moisture index can be easily adjusted and controlled according to the user's requirements.
i.
Biosolids treatment processes adopt frequency conversion speed control material flow, can easily adjust and control the final moisture index according to the user's need.
j. Low gas temperature, long use time of dust removal equipment, continuous production for the next process
Biosolids dryer benefits
Biosolids dryer mainly adopts three-layer rotary drum dryer, high temperature and strong drying, suitable for wood processing by-products such as wood chips, wood chips, wood powder, sawdust, wood bran, shredded wood pieces, crushed bark and branches, shavings and other biomass fuel drying process.
Biosolids dryer machine covers a small area, has a large processing capacity, low power consumption, and uses a clean and environmentally friendly burner for heating, which is environmentally friendly and low in consumption, and is an indispensable equipment in the biomass fuel pellet production line and biomass fuel briquette production line.
Why should we choose biosolids dryer?
As the challenge of dealing with biosolids becomes more daunting, forward-thinking treatment plants are looking for cost-effective solutions to help their communities comply with EPA requirements. Disposing of Class B has become an issue for a number of reasons. Transportation costs and tipping fees have skyrocketed, and in some cases landfills, without notice, are refusing to accept further deliveries of Class B biosolids.
Biosolids dryer is designed to address the needs of small to medium sized municipalities and to keep operator attention and maintenance costs to a minimum. The sludge dryer system is an automated continuous processor. All operating parameters are controlled by the PLC system and the automated process runs continuously with minimal manpower required.
The biological can dry sludge in a way that other systems cannot. Effective drying; digestion, undigested primary, residual sludge and mixtures of these types of sludge are common in regional facilities. Unique design features include continuous removal of buildup from the heat transfer surface. The system also eliminates any large agglomerates from building up and passes through the system via a series of cutters that break up the agglomerates and uniform particle size at each stage of the rotor.
Biocontinuous production of 90%+ dry product with various sludge consistency based on three main control factors. With the ability to control the feed rate into the dryer, the residence time in the dryer and the temperature of the dryer, the IC-Series Bio continuously produces a consistent solids content of the dried product.
The thermal energy used for drying is indirect, with the hot fluid distributed through the rotor and the outer sheath of the drying chamber, in a closed-loop path. The drying process is carried out under a slight negative pressure in a sealed chamber. The feed material is extruded into the dryer from the feed hopper. The lock box and cooling screw remain sealed in the discharge. A biosolids dryer facility with an integrated scrubber/condenser removes evaporated water from the system to capture any particles.
Precaution of using biosolids dryer
a. The heating or cooling of the dryer needs to be carried out slowly, and the user should take the appropriate speed of heating and cooling according to the situation.
b. During the operation of the equipment, it should be sampled according to the standard process, and the sample is closed to restart the machine.
c. Rolling bearing selected MOS2 compound base grease (ZFG-IE) * temperature of 150 degrees, at least once a month to check, found that the grease becomes dry, timely replacement of new grease.
d. The maintenance of cylindrical gear reducer should be according to its manual requirements.
e. The filter in the tank needs to clean the powder adsorbed on it after each drying to keep the filtration smooth.
f. The mechanical seal or packing seal between the main shaft and the tank should be inspected periodically. Leakage found immediately repair or replace the seals.
g. The equipment should be inspected and repaired once every six months to a year, and the original assembly method and tolerance requirements should not be changed during the overhaul, and the corresponding lubricant should be added according to the regulations.
h. Special note: The equipment must be reliably grounded since its installation and use.
