ALTENTECH The Altentech Biovertidryer has been uniquely engineered to dry virtually any type of biomass from wood fibre, including hog fuel, to agricultural by-products con-sistently, safely, and cost effectively. Some of the significant advantages it offers include: Lower emissions with no additional filtra-tion systems; less energy needed for better drying results; temperature and operation adjustments effective in minutes; output widely adjustable from approximately five to 15 plus tons per hour; reduced tempera-ture and the elimination of turbulence great-ly reduces any chance of fire or explosions; and small footprint and modular with over 70 per cent less real estate coverage than a rotary drum dryer. www.altentech.com GEA the bio-ethanol industry providing distin-guished product quality. To increase effi-cient energy usage, systems can be heated by turbine exhaust gases or utilize exhaust gas-recycle which also renders the system inherently safe. The Feed-Type Ring Dryer is designed for drying feed and fibrous ma-terials where extended drying times are re-quired without product damage. Features include a cold disintegrator for breaking up agglomerates and a manifold for recy-cling heavier and wetter particles back to the disintegrator. GEA also has consider-able experience in drying other moist ma-terials including corn fibre/gluten, wheat and corn feed, cellulose and lignin. This dryer is capable of evaporative capabilities of up to 30 tons per hour. GEA will pair the Ring Dryer with a Fluid Bed Cooler for final powder conditioning. www.gea.com separate sections. Woodchips move be-tween an upper and a lower convey-or through the sections. The dryer can use any hot air source. With Säätötuli 2x500kW biomass hot air generators, the dryer will convert about 14.1 ton of green woodchips (55 per cent moisture content) into seven ton of pellet-grade woodchips (5 per cent moisture con-tent) per hour. The Säätökuivaus batch dryer has a 16-cubic meter tank for woodchips. The dryer pushes hot air through the batch and monitors the weight in real-time to obtain the right moisture content. The bottom of the dryer is equipped with hydraulic scrap-ers and an unloading auger. www.saatotuli.ca UZELAC After pioneering Dis-tiller’s grains drying in the Scottish whis-ky industry in the 1960’s and 70’s, GEA has become the pre-ferred supplier of drying technology in SÄÄTÖTULI CANADA The Säätökuivaus continuous dryer dries large quantities of woodchips with accu-rate and homogeneous final moisture content. The dryer is divided into three The triple-pass dryer for wood chips and biomass by Uzelac Industries has a number of unique advantages over sim-ilar dryers. Its bolt-on tire design reduc-es maintenance and increases tire life, while the overhead drive reduces wear on the rollers. Access doors on the out-er and intermediate cylinders allow for easy inspection and cleaning of all three YOUR CHOICE FOR ANY BIOMASS DRYING NEEDS Our Rotary Drying Systems are custom-built to produce a variety of fuels and products.
