摘要:
A dryer comprising a vertical container with spherical contact bodies. The material to be dried is fed into the top of the container by material application means and forms a bed with the contact bodies. A drying gas is introduced into the bed, such that the material in the bed is first dried in countercurrent direction and then in co-current direction, whereupon the dried material is separated from the contact bodies in a separation zone. The separating means consist of infeed arms, a separation rotor surrounded by a separation stator, and of a perforated separation bottom allowing the dried material to pass, but retaining the contact bodies to be returned to the top of the container by a centrally disposed screw conveyor. The shape of the material application means varies with the material to be dried. When drying liquid material, the material application means comprise a bowl, rotary spiral arms within the bowl, and rotary spreading arms at the margin of the bowl. When drying pasty material, the shaft of the screw conveyor is hollow, and the pasty material is fed down through this hollow part and out through distributing pipes for mixing with the contact bodies. Situated above the distributing pipes is a bowl with rotary spiral arms. When drying solid material, the material application means comprise a bowl with spreading arms and a spreading carriage travelling in a path across the bed.

Generally, the present disclosure is related to systems and methods for separating hydrocarbons and/or other liquids from drill cuttings material. One illustrative embodiment disclosed herein is directed to a system that includes, among other things, a thermal reactor that is adapted to remove liquid from drill cuttings material by heating the drill cuttings material to at least a first temperature that is sufficiently high enough to vaporize the liquid. The illustrative system also includes a feeder system that is adapted to controllably feed a flow of the drill cuttings material to the thermal reactor, and a control system that is adapted to control the flow of the drill cuttings material from the feeder system so as to maintain a temperature in the thermal reactor at or above the first temperature.

A method for drying a material, the method including: positioning a material in an acoustic chest including an acoustic device; and directing acoustically energized air from the acoustic device at the material within the acoustic chest.
摘要:
This invention relates to a heat generating apparatus and its process utilizing air circulation and convection, wherein a chamber having air friction heat generating means is provided with outer air induction means and air flow therewithin is circulated forcibly as convective flow, thereby the temperature distribution becoming uniform throughout the interior of the chamber. Thus, it can be employed as a powerful heat source or a heating or drying chamber.
摘要:
A method and/or apparatus for drying material by disposing the material against a heated surface that has a charged electrode arrangement disposed adjacent the surface and cooperating therewith to define a plurality of alternately arranged non-uniform electrostatic fields extending between the electrode arrangement and the surface with each non-uniform field having the higher intensity portion thereof substantially oppositely located relative to the higher intensity portion of an adjacent non-uniform field so that the fields can at least partially extend through the material when the material is disposed against the surface and between the surface and the electrode arrangement.
摘要:
Apparatus and method for removing moisture from moisture bearing material comprising supporting structure for supporting the material, a vibrator unit for vibrating the supported material and an electrostatic unit for electrostatically removing moisture from the vibrating material and for dielectrically heating the vibrating material. The vibrator unit and the electrostatic unit are disposed in aligned relation substantially transverse to the supported material to respectively and substantially act in unison thereon.
摘要:
A method of drying a moisture-containing or water-laden biomass material is provided that includes the steps of sending the biomass material into an apparatus having a feeding device, a rotary biomass dryer, a reflux condenser, an aftercooler, and an exit mechanism. The biomass material may be pretreated, and then heated in order to separate the moisture-containing or water laden biomass material into steam and dry biomass material. The steam is removed as the steam and the dry biomass material passes through the reflux condenser, the dry biomass is cooled in the aftercooler stage, and the dry biomass material is collected after exiting the apparatus through the exit mechanism.
