FAQs
1. What is a flash drying system?
A system that dries wet materials by suspending them in a high-velocity hot air stream, resulting in rapid moisture removal.
2. What types of materials can be dried?
Fine powders, granules, pastes, and slurries – such as starch, dyes, pigments, herbal extracts, and minerals.
3. Is it suitable for heat-sensitive products?
Yes, the low residence time and controlled temperature make it ideal for temperature-sensitive materials.
4. How fast is the drying process?
Most materials are dried within a few seconds in flash drying systems.
5. How is the material fed into the dryer?
Through feed pumps, screw feeders, or pneumatic conveyors depending on the material type.
6. What energy sources are used?
Electric heaters, gas burners, steam, or thermic fluid systems can be used.
7. What are the maintenance requirements?
Low maintenance – mainly blower checks, filter cleaning, and periodic inspection of air nozzles and ducts.
8. Can I integrate it into an existing plant?
Yes, it can be retrofitted into existing powder processing lines.
9. Is dust control included?
Yes, flash dryers are generally paired with cyclone separators, bag filters, or scrubbers.
10. Is it scalable?
Yes, available from pilot-scale to large industrial capacity models.
