Product catalog summary
Overview: The Nutsche filter dryer by De Dietrich Process Systems combines filtration and drying processes in a single unit, primarily used in chemical and pharmaceutical industries for batch manufacturing. It is also applicable in vegetal extraction processes.
Process Steps:
  • Filling: The vessel is filled with a slurry from a reactor or crystallizer.
  • Filtration: Liquid-solid separation occurs through filtration media, collecting filtrates beneath the filter plate.
  • Piston Displacement Washing: Washing liquids displace through the cake to clean it.
  • Reslurry Washing: The agitator re-slurries the solid in a washing solvent.
  • Smoothing: The agitator smooths the wet cake to prevent cracks.
  • Drying and Cooling: Vacuum drying with heated walls and agitator to reach boiling point and dry the product.
  • Discharging: The agitator pushes the product out through a side discharge port.
Equipment Features:
  • Interchangeable filtration media (metallic or textile cloth).
  • Agitator designs (Guedu® and Rosenmund®) for efficient mixing and smoothing.
  • Vacuum drying with dust filter protection.
  • PLC and operator interface panel for function control.
  • Containment solutions with glovebox isolators for operator protection.
Benefits:
  • Hygienic design suitable for pharmaceutical industries.
  • Efficient metal/metal sealing for abrasive or sticky materials.
  • Gas knife assisted discharge for high efficiency.
  • On-line humidity measurement and easy maintenance features.
Product Range: The document provides detailed specifications for various models, including filtration surface, agitator stroke, cake volume, and power requirements, catering to both pilot and production scales.

Smoothing The agitator (Guedu® or Rosenmund® shaped) is used to to smooth the wet cake in the filter dryer, to avoid the formation of cracks or preferential paths. Drying and cooling Agitated vacuum drying consists in applying a vacuum on the vessel, while heating the walls and agitator using thermal circuits. This allows to reach the liquid boiling point and to dry the product. Discharging The specially designed agitator pushes the product out towards a side discharge port.
