The efficiency of a certain processing technology is affected by various factors such as design, processes, and the medium used to process bulk goods. However, of all these affecting factors the design features play a very important role to the overall efficiency of a particular technology. It takes a genius mind to patent a processing technology that is technically superior when it comes design and other important features.
Technological advancements has made it possible to develop a state of the art processing technology like the bulk powders heat exchanger technology that are both energy-efficient and at the same time provides a superior bulk powder quality. Here are some of the important design features of the bulk powders heat exchanger technology which make it ultra-efficient compared to other competing technologies.
Mass Flow Design
In order to produce a superior bulk product quality, there should be an accurate and complete control of the product temperature in every level through out the process. And this could only happen with the help of a mass flow design. This particular design feature is the one responsible in the uniform velocity of the product through the mass flow discharge feeder and at the same time helps to regulate the flow rate of the product. The mass flow design contributes a lot in the stable and uniform final temperature of the bulk materials. It also helps in the uniform movement of the materials through the heat exchanger.
Indirect Plate Cooling Design
The indirect plate cooling and heating design of the bulk powders heat exchanger technology is the reason why this technology operates in a 90% efficiency. The indirect plate cooling and heating design alows the processing of bulk goods with out the use of air which means it extinguish the use of a large horsepower electric drives and the associated heat loss. This ability of cooling and heating bulk products with out the use of air provides many innate advantages such as zero emissions, odors, dust fines and other accompanying problems experiencend with air contact such as bacterial contaminations and other risks. And since this technology does not rely on air, the installation cost of unnecessary air handling equipment like motors, fans, chillers, emissions control and scrubbers were reduced.
Compact and Modular Design
The bulk powders heat exchanger technology was designed with a vertical configuration making it compact and modular. It's compact design allows the easy integration for existng facilities and for possible increase in capacity in the future. On the other hand, the modular design of this technology makes it possible the stacking of additional plate bank if there is an increased in the cooling capacity in the future.
No Movable Parts
For the purpose of simple maintenance, low costs and reliable operation, this state of the art processing tecnology was designed with out any moving parts.
