GIG Karasek - Horizontal & Vertical Thin Film Dryer
Solutions for solidsloaded streams up to free-flowing products. The thin film dryer is a special type of thin film evaporator. There are two types of thin film dryers, the vertical and the horizontal dryer. If these systems reach their limits when it comes to heat-sensitive products, the successful thin-film evaporator principle ensures gentle processes. Based on their wealth of experience and knowledge from separation technology, our experts realize high-performance vertical and horizontal thin-film dryers, which convince both economically and process technically. For individual results, tailored and not available on the market, our technical center provides the ideal R & D environment to cover in-depth tests etc.
The thin film dryer is mainly used in the chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries.
Dried products like:
- Chemical products (preliminary and intermediate products)
- Sludges (process sludges, industrial sludges and municipal sludges)
- suspensions
- pastes
- moist solids
- Saline solutions
- Products of the fatty acid industry, etc.
- Minimal value product loss
- Product protection and purity
- Gentle evaporation by short residence times and permanent product revolution
- No deposits on the heating surfaces through mechanical cleaning
- Reduced maintenance through sophisticated
- Construction in bearing and mechanical seal area
The product is distributed continuously over the entire circumference of the heating wall. Using special wiper elements the wall contact is renewed constantly and the product stream simultaneously transported. The blades do not touch the heating jacket, but prevented crusting or clogging of the heating surface by massively built, arranged with defined gap wiper elements.
These wiper design allows liquid feedstock through to powdered dry up. The various units can be used both individually and in combination, and the operator can thus benefit from the advantages of different types of evaporators.
