Oilseed
Efficient drying for all of your seed products.
Small Footprint
Vertical multiple tray design minimizes footprint.
Dryer-Cooler (DC)
A counter-current system to efficiently dry and cool your products.
The Dryer-Cooler (DC), when used with the Desolventizer-Toaster (DT), will dry and cool almost any solvent-extracted, vegetable-oil-bearing meal. The drying and cooling is accomplished by injecting heated air in the drying section and using ambient-temperature air to cool the meal in the cooling section. The evenly distributed flow of hot air and cool air in a true counter-current system is highly efficient and reduces energy costs while producing a meal with the desired characteristics for sale and storage.
The DC unit works equally well combined with a DT or used as a separate unit, depending upon customer preference.
The DC used in a specialty application is a direct contact dryer that uses the heat and water in the product to dry and simultaneously cool the product with minimal air.
- Initial investment reduced as compared to a rotary steam tube
dryer and cooler - One-piece steel shell to prevent leakage
- Hard surfaced steel sweep arms for longer wear
- Automatic gate mechanisms are adjustable for loading each tray
with the desired depth of meal - Heavy duty gate bearings and seals for long wear and
minimum leakage - Quick opening round manholes for easy access and tight closure
- Evaporative cooling utilized to obtain a steam efficiency above
1.5 kilogram of water evaporated for every kilogram of steam consumed
- Operates on soybeans, canola, rapeseed, sunflower, peanuts, corn germ, cottonseed, palm kernel and a wide variety of other products
- Crown DCs are available for pilot scale to large scale production capabilities
- Counter-current design maximizes thermal efficiency
- Semi-fluidized bed minimizes material attrition
Key Features
- Vertical multiple tray design minimizes footprint
