What are the Parts of a Ceramic Spray Dryer?

Parts ceramic spray dryer

 Parts of ceramic spray dryer

A ceramic spray dryer has several components.

These components work together to produce the best quality of the ceramic powder.

It is necessary to have some knowledge of how the parts of a ceramic spray dryer operate.

Knowing such parts enable you to operate the machine with ease.

Besides, you will be able to conduct inspections.

In addition to the parts listed below, you also need other equipment like fans and cooling systems.

These adjoining parts will help you enhance the efficiency of the ceramic spray dryer.

Here are the parts of a ceramic spray dryer:

· Atomizer

The atomizer makes the evaporation process to be more effective.

Normally, the function of the atomizer is to change the liquid into tiny droplets.

Here, the tiny droplets assist in fabricating ceramic powder with the best and desirable properties.

Remember, the nozzles come in various designs.

The nozzle design influences the energy consumption that makes the droplets.

· Pneumatic Nozzles

This system uses high air velocity to atomize the liquid.

This leads to the formation of friction forces that break all the liquid into tiny droplets.

Pneumatic nozzles form droplets in two stages:

  1. Stage one

In this stage, you will transform the liquid feed into rough droplets.

  1. Stage two

In this stage, you are transforming the rough droplets into fine droplets.

The surface tension, viscosity, and the density of the air and feed determine the quality of the final product.

· Centrifugal Nozzles

Centrifugal nozzles make the liquid to move to the center of the rotary disk due to the centrifugal force.

The disk blades then deform the droplets.

It is important to note that the size of the particle is inversely related to the diameter of the centrifuge disk.

On the contrary, the velocity of the rotary directly relates to the surface tension, density, and viscosity of the product.

You can make high viscosity products with this system since it does not have problems related to clogging and fouling.

· Pressure Nozzles

The pressure nozzles transform the pressure of the liquid into the kinetic energy of the thin layers of flowing liquid.

The air friction effect together with the physical properties of the liquid makes the liquid layers separate.

Besides, the change in pressure affects the property of the nozzle and the feeding rate of the liquid.

The liquid feeding rate and its viscosity is in direct correlation with the mean size of the nozzle.

Applying pressure nozzles in ceramic spray dryers reduces sedimentation in the drying chamber.

Pressure nozzles also lead to the powder not having an irregular texture or a high bulk density.

· Heating System

The inlet air heating system has two design methods.

The two design methods are direct methods and indirect methods.

Direct Method

Air is in direct contact with a heating source in the direct heating system method.

The source of heat can be a flame.

Indirect Method

In this method, you are not heating the air directly by the heat exchanger.

The design parameters in the indirect heating system method include:

  • The thermophysical properties of air
  • The rate of the airflow
  • The temperature of the airflow

· Drying Tower Chambers

Ceramic spray drying happens in the drying chamber.

In the drying tower chamber, you will remove moisture from the material by spraying it as tiny droplets.

The moisture evaporates as the droplets move by hot air circulation.

Besides, the moisture that evaporates exits from the drying tower chamber together with the air.

Also, the drying happens at a constant rate.

The size of the drying tower chamber depends on:

  1. The feed rates
  2. The type of atomizer
  3. The type of distribution of the feed
  4. The inlet hot air

· Recovery System

The hot air that exits the drying chamber contains some dry ceramic powder.

With this in mind, it is mandatory to separate the dry ceramic powder from the air.

You achieve this by using cyclonic separating systems that use centrifugal force.

The number and size of the cyclone influence the efficiency of dry ceramic powder separation.

How does a Ceramic Spray Dryer Work?

A ceramic spray dryer will dry atomized liquid to form a ceramic powder.

A ceramic spray dryer works in the following steps:

· Wetting Process

This is the very first step, to begin with when making ceramic powder.

All materials that make up ceramic powder is in liquid form.

The liquid state makes it possible for atomization to take place efficiently.

Some of the steps you are to do in the wet process involve:

  1. Formulation or Dissolution

This step involves mixing all raw material that makes up a ceramic powder in a liquid form.

  1. Evaporation or Concentration

In this stage, you are increasing the overall solid that results in a superior yield or the ceramic spray dryer.

  1. Heating

The heating step helps to compensate for the increase in viscosity that happens due to concentration.

  1. Pumping

All the mixed raw materials are called the slurry.

In the pumping step, you are pumping the slurry to the ceramic spray dryer at high pressure.

· Atomization Process

You are to atomize the liquid into small droplets to ensure it dries rapidly.

Atomization increases the surface area, which makes the moisture leave the particles.

Atomization happens with the assistance of one or many nozzles.

There are a variety of nozzle designs present, and the one you choose depends on the material and the flow rate.

This ensures that you get the best outcome.

Some of the types of atomization nozzles include:

  1. Pressure nozzles
  2. Two-fluid nozzles
  3. Rotary nozzles

· Contact Between the Liquid and Air

Drying takes place once the liquid droplets get in contact with dry air.

You are to heat the air before it enters the ceramic spray dryer drying chamber.

This will make it possible for the air to take up the moisture from the liquid droplets.

The hot dry air has low humidity and high temperature at the inlet.

On leaving the drying chamber, the hot air has a lower temperature and high humidity.

The hot air can come from the top [co-currently] of the drying chamber or the bottom [counter-current] of the drying chamber.

A majority of ceramic spray dryers use the co-current drying technique.

This is because the high-temperature air gets into contact with the first particles that have high humidity.

This prevents the ceramic powder particles from overheating.

· Drying Process

Once the particles are inside the drying chamber, the drying process starts.

The heat transfer that occurs between air and the particles will remove moisture.

You can conduct the drying process in three ways:

  1. The Falling Rate

The capability of the liquid in the solid particles influences the drying.

Diffusion controls this process.

  1. Bubble Formation

During the falling rate, the temperature of the particles will increase.

The liquid in the particle evaporates when the temperature gets higher than its boiling point.

A bubble, then forms when evaporation happens.

  1. Constant Drying Rate

Liquid saturates the particles in this stage.

Mas transfer occurs rapidly when the surface of the particle is broader.

· Separation Process

You are to collect the dry ceramic powder in this step.

The separation of ceramic powder from air happens with the help of cyclones.

You can fix filters to the cyclone to increase the efficiency of the separation process.

Once in the cyclone, dry ceramic powder separates from the air.

The dry ceramic powder, then collects at the bottom of the ceramic spray dryer.

What are the Classifications of Ceramic Spray Dryer?

There are various classifications of ceramic spray dryers.

The economic and commercial agenda influence the design of ceramic spray dryers.

The structural design of ceramic spray dryers depends on the stage number[s], the cycle type, and the flow rate.

· Cycle Types

When you consider the cycle types, you can classify ceramic spray dryers into a closed cycle and open cycle.

Open Cycle Ceramic Spray Dryer

In an open cycle ceramic spray dryer, you first start by applying the drying air.

After applying the drying air in the drying process, you will clean the air in the drying chamber.

You will use a secondary separator to dry the air before releasing it into the environment.

Since you will release the air into the environment, an open cycle has less energy efficiency compared to a closed cycle dryer.

Closed Cycle Ceramic Spray Dryer

In a closed cycle ceramic spray dryer, you also start by applying the dry air.

Once you apply it in the drying process, you will clean the air, dry the air, and then recycle it into the drying chamber.

Closes cycle ceramic spray dryers have a high energy efficiency compared to open cycle ceramic spray dryers.

· The Stage Number[s]

You can also classify ceramic spray dryers into multi-stage dryers and single-stage dryers.

Single-stage Ceramic Dryer

This is the most common and simple type of ceramic spray dryer.

In a single-stage ceramic dryer, you reduce the moisture content to about 2-5% by weight.

A single-stage ceramic dryer has a low heat efficiency when you compare it to a multi-stage ceramic dryer.

Multi-stage Ceramic Dryer

In a multi-stage ceramic dryer, the moisture content of the product that leaves the drying chamber is about 5-10%.

A multi-stage ceramic spray dryer allows the use of low temperatures in the drying chamber.

The low temperature is a perfect choice when you are drying heat-sensitive items.

A multi-stage ceramic dryer has a high heat efficiency when you compare it to a single-stage ceramic dryer.

· Flow Types

When considering the flow types, you can classify ceramic spray dryers into:

Counter-current Dryer

In a counter-current dryer, the air and the product flow towards each other.

At the top, you will find the atomizer and at the bottom is where the air enters,

With this in mind, the dry particles get in contact with the hottest air.

Counter-current ceramic dryers will offer you a faster evaporation rate and high energy efficiency compared to co-current dryers.

Co-current Dryer

In a co-current dryer, the product and airflow come from the same direction.

This makes the hottest air to get into contact with the droplets when they have the most moisture content.

Mixed Flow Dryer

In this type, the ceramic spray dryer ruses both co-current and counter-current flow to dry ceramic.

What Parameters Influence the Quality of Product in Ceramic Spray Dryer?

Several factors influence the properties of the ceramic powder.

Some of the parameters that influence the quality product in a ceramic spray dryer include:

 Ceramic spray dryer system

Ceramic spray dryer system

Feed Viscosity

You will use a lot of atomization energy when you increase the feed viscosity.

This increase in force overcomes the huge forces of the viscous solution.

This results in a large droplet size since little energy is left for the fission of droplets.

Atomization Pressure

When you use nozzle atomizers, atomization will happen under pressure.

The pressure that you apply influences the size of the droplet.

In some feed solution and atomizers available, an increase in pressure reduces the size of the droplets.

Inlet Temperature

The inlet temperature is the dry gas temperature before it enters the drying chamber.

A high inlet temperature enables the moisture to evaporate rapidly.

It is important to note that a high inlet temperature impacts the wet-bulb temperature of the surrounding air.

It is important to balance it according to the property of the feedstock.

Feed Flow Rate

You will pump the feedstock into the atomizer at a sustainable rate.

When you maintain a constant atomization pressure, you increase the size of the droplets by increasing the rate of feed flow.

This is true since the nozzle has the same amount of energy.

The atomizer uses this same energy to atomize the high volume of feed.

This means you are minimizing the fission of droplets hence reducing its size.

Feed Surface Tension

Atomization will occur when you disrupt the surface tension of the feed.

With this in mind, it is correct to say that you will hinder atomization since the feedstock has high surface tension.

It is thus important to emulsify and homogenize feedstock before you start the ceramic drying process.

This will reduce the surface tension of the feedstock.

Drying Gas Flow Rate

The dry gas flow rate is the drying gas that enters the drying chamber per unit time.

A high gas flow rate increases the movement of the particles inside the chamber.

This minimizes the interaction time of the air and droplet.

The flow rate of the drying gas needs to be low enough.

This enables the ceramic powder to be completely dry.

The rate should also be suitable to facilitate the separation process.

Outlet Temperature

This is the air that gets in contact with the ceramic particles before going to the collection station.

The heat exchange inside the drying chamber influences the outlet air temperature.

Generally, the outlet temperature is higher due to the heat exchange.

In the counter-current ceramic dryers, the outlet temperature is lower than the ceramic powder.

Residence Time within the Drying Chamber

Residence time is the period the droplets spend in the drying chamber.

Residence time has to be adequate to ensure complete drying of ceramic powder.

What are the Convectional Atomizers used on a Ceramic Spray Dryer?

The convectional atomizers hat a ceramic spray dryer uses include:

Rotary Atomizers

Rotary atomizers have a horizontal disc or wheel.

The feedstock directs to the center of this atomizer.

A centrifugal force makes the feed spread to the periphery hence forming spray droplets.

Hydraulic Nozzle Atomizers

It is also called a one-fluid nozzle.

You direct the feed through a pipe that narrows in diameter.

This makes the fluid come out at high pressure to form droplets.

Pneumatic Nozzle Atomizers

It is also known as a multi-fluid nozzle.

Two nozzles aid in the atomization process.

You will feed the feedstock a well as the compressed atomizing medium.

What is Atomization in a Ceramic Spray Dryer?

Atomization is an integral part of a ceramic spray dryer.

Atomization is the process where the liquid feedstock is converted to tiny droplets using an atomizer.

Atomization determines the quality, viscosity, and particle size of the ceramic powder.

The moisture if the droplets evaporate in the drying chamber to become individual ceramic powder in the drying stage.

What are the Common Atomization Techniques in Ceramic Spray Dryer?

These are the atomization techniques in a ceramic spray dryer:

Two-fluid Nozzle Atomization

In this technique, you are creating spray by contacting the feed and the compressed gas.

The contact can happen inside or outside the nozzle.

With this technique, you create a broader particle size distribution.

Two-fluid atomization is the least energy-efficient technique.

Centrifugal Atomization

In this technique, you are creating a spray by passing the fluid through a rotating disk.

You will produce a broader particle size distribution with this technique.

You also require a high inlet gas velocity to control the wall buildup.

Pressure Nozzle Atomization

In this technique, you will force fluid through an orifice.

This atomization technique is the most energy-efficient.

You can achieve the narrowest particle size distribution with a pressure nozzle atomization technique.

What is the Price of a Ceramic Spray Dryer?

The price of a ceramic spray dryer varies a lot depending on the material, size, and capacity.

The one you will buy depends on your production needs and your budget.

The price can range from 1,000 US Dollars to 1,000,000 US Dollars.

How does Freeze Granulation compare to Spray Drying?

Freeze granulation is more expensive compared to spray drying.

Freeze granulation is suitable for small to medium size batches where granule quality is high.

Spray drying is suitable for large scale processing even though you can use it for small samples.

Freeze granulation applies a two-step process; spray freezing and freeze-drying.
