Dryers and Coolers

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Drying is a critical process in various industries, involving the removal of water from solids, liquids, or gases. Efficient drying systems are essential for successful process design and implementation. Metso Pyro Division offers a range of thermal drying systems, including rotary dryers, fluid bed dryers, and indirect dryers.
Rotary Dryers
Rotary dryers are cylindrical shells that use lifters to cascade particles through a hot gas stream, suitable for materials with varying sizes and compositions. Key design factors include dryer diameter, lifter design, and flow type (parallel or counterflow). Metso's patented rotary air seal ensures tight sealing for thermal efficiency.
Fluid Bed Dryers
Fluidized beds involve finely divided solids with gas passing through, creating a boiling action for thorough mixing and uniform drying. Metso's entrainment dryer incorporates fluid bed technology for longer residence times and prevention of build-up.
Indirect Drying Systems
Used when materials cannot contact combustion gases, these systems include steam tube dryers and indirect fired rotary kilns. They provide uniform heating through steam tubes or radiation, suitable for fine materials.
Coolers
Drying systems can also function as coolers using ambient air or cooling water. Metso classifies coolers into direct air swept, water-cooled shell, and water tube types.
Materials Processed
Metso has processed over 400 different materials, including potash, phosphate, and various resins. Their extensive experience ensures better performance and easier maintenance.
Conclusion
Metso provides both separate drying units and complete systems with process and mechanical warranties, ensuring lower fuel consumption and higher availability.

Potash rotary dryer Phosphate rotary dryer Fluid beds and rotary dryers and coolers Drying is the removal of water from solids, liquids or Metso rotary dryers Rotary dryers are slightly inclined cylindrical shells supported by two gases. In almost all industries, at some step in the riding rings running on a set of rollers. Rotary dryers are suitable for process, material needs to be dried. Drying can be drying a wide range of materials because of their ability to process the beginning, intermediate or final step in the materials having considerable variation in size and composition. material...

Nickel ore rotary dryer Fluid beds The term “fluidized bed” usually refers to a bed of finely divided solids through which a gas is passing and which is in a state between that of a static bed and one where all the solids are suspended in the gas stream, as in pneumatic conveying. The introduction of an appropriate gas flow into the material bed brings about the onset of fluidization. Bubbles of gas pass through the bed of material creating a condition of rapid mixing. The bed has the appearance of a vigorously boiling liquid, and in fact the bed of material takes on many of the properties of...

Stainless steel steam tube dryer Combined rotary indirect dryer and cooler Indirect systems Indirect drying systems are used when the material to be dried cannot come into contact with the combustion gases normally used in drying. This situation often exists in chemical and agricultural situations, but also in some mineral and waste applications. Steam tube dryers Steam tube dryers have a series of tubes running down the length of the rotating shell and passing through the bed of feed material. Steam passes into the tubes, condenses and uniformly heats the feed material. All of the drying systems...

Steam heated aluminum hydrate fluid bed dryer. Experience is key Metso has supplied over 4,000 dryers for over 400 different materials for operations around the world. This experience translates into better performance, higher availability and easier maintenance. Materials act differently during drying. They may be sticky when being fed to the dryer, or they may become sticky during drying. They may agglomerate during drying, or become dust. In some cases the material needs to be dried completely, “bone dry”, and in some cases the material is only partially dried. Metso has experience in all...
