Xerbis XB

General

The XERBIS is a media agitation-type flash dryer. It applies the dispersion mechanism of agitated ball media, suitable for drying liquid or slurry materials.
The XERBIS can dry slurries which encounter difficulties with conventional dryers and produce high quality products consistently in a continuous operation.

Construction

The XERBIS has a dispersion zone at its bottom section. The slurry is fed to this section and receives a very strong dispersing effect from the agitating rotor and ball media. The dispersed slurry forms a thin layer on the surfaces of the ball media. The thin layer is then dried, peeled off, and conveyed to a product collector outside the XERBIS along with process air. In addition, fineness of the product can be controlled by integrating a high speed classifier on the top of the XERBIS.

Features

• Slurries/Solutions Can Be Dried
  Slurries that have high viscosity and are cohesive in nature can be dried by the XERBIS.
• Energy Saving
  With a closed circuit system, energy cost for material drying can be drastically reduced.
• Wear Protection
  Various ceramic internal components are available.
• Compact
  A strong dispersion mechanism enhances energy transfer efficiency and reduces space requirements.

Application

Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC),Battery Materials (Cathode),Dexistrin, Cellulose,Barium Sulfate,Aluminium Hydroxides,Silica etc.

SYSTEM FLOW

The following shows the flow sheet of the XERBIS dryer system. It consists of a metering pump for feeding raw material, hot air generator, product collector, and blower. With a closed circuit system, heat efficiency can be increased to reduce energy consumption.
