Double Cone Vacuum Dryer
Double Cone Vacuum Dryers are specialized industrial drying machines designed for efficient moisture or solvent removal from solid materials. Operating under vacuum, they lower the boiling point of liquids, allowing gentle, low-temperature drying that preserves heat-sensitive or easily oxidizable products.
Key Details:
Category: Industrial Drying Equipment
Material Construction:
Built from industrial-grade metals such as 304L or 316L stainless steel,
with options for Hastelloy for high corrosion resistance.
Description:
Structure: The dryer consists of a double-cone shaped vessel
that rotates slowly on its axis to ensure uniform drying.
Mechanism: Combines vacuum decompression with indirect heating
via a jacketed vessel using steam, hot water, or thermal oil.
Components: Includes a drying chamber, vacuum pump, heating
system, condenser for solvent recovery, and a discharge valve.
Features: Provides gentle, uniform mixing without high shear,
preventing degradation of fragile particles.
Common Uses / Applications:
- Pharmaceutical Industry: Drying active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), intermediates, herbal extracts, and delicate excipients.
- Chemical Industry: Processing fine chemicals, dyes, pigments, catalyst powders, and pesticides.
- Food Industry: Drying probiotic cultures, natural spices, fruit powders, and food additives.
- Materials Science: Drying polymer resins, ceramics, and materials such as lithium carbonate for batteries.
Key Advantages:
- Low-Temperature Drying: Prevents thermal degradation of sensitive materials.
- Solvent Recovery: Integrated condensers allow for recovery of expensive or toxic solvents.
- Uniformity: Constant rotation ensures even drying and prevents clumping.
- Safety: Sealed system reduces contamination risks and allows handling of hazardous materials.
