Tube Bundle Drying

Tube bundle drying is used for non-sticky, pourable product that does not clog at the temperatures required for drying and conditioning.

Tube bundle drying are for instance used in the starch, destilling, brewery, and extraction industries.

The central element in our tube bundle drying system is the steam heated tube bundle. It dries the product by rotating inside a firm housing. The product is only in contact with the tubes, not with the heating medium steam.

Function and Principle of Operation
The central element in our tube bundle drying solutions are the steam heated tube bundle. It dries the product by rotating inside a firm housing. The product is only in contact with the tubes, not with the heating medium steam.

Application
Vetter tube bundle drying are used for pourable product that does not stick to the tubes or tend to clog at the temperatures required for the drying and conditioning process (up to 180°C steam temperature). Depending on the material properties, many materials can be "made" pourable by mixing them up with material that has been previously dried (recycling system).

Steam-heated tube bundle drying can be used as conditioners or as pre-desolventizers. The wide spectrum of applications requires adaptation to special requirements. We achieve this by varying the spacing and diameter of the tubes, shovel arrangements, and filling levels inside the tube bundle housing.
