Double Cone Vacuum Dryer

Double Cone Vacuum Dryer

The Double Cone Vacuum Dryer achieves uniform drying and gentle mixing of materials through double-cone rotation in a low-temperature vacuum environment. It is particularly well-suited for heat-sensitive, easily oxidized, toxic, hazardous, or high-value-added powders and granular materials, and is widely used in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries.

  • Product Introduction

Overview

 

The Double Cone Vacuum Dryer achieves uniform drying and gentle mixing of materials through double-cone rotation in a low-temperature vacuum environment. It is particularly well-suited for heat-sensitive, easily oxidized, toxic, hazardous, or high-value-added powders and granular materials, and is widely used in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries.

 

Principle

 

1. Vacuum Environment Creation: A vacuum pump evacuates air from the vessel to establish a vacuum level of -0.08 to -0.098 MPa, significantly lowering the boiling point of the moisture (water/solvent) within the material (e.g., the boiling point of water is approximately 45°C at 10 kPa).
2. Indirect Heating: Steam, hot water, or thermal oil is circulated through the jacket, transferring heat evenly to the material via the vessel's inner wall.
3. Dynamic Mixing and Drying: A motor drives the vessel to rotate at 3–12 rpm; the material continuously tumbles-moving up and down as well as inward and outward-within the double-cone structure, ensuring contact with the vessel wall without dead zones and resulting in high heat transfer efficiency (heat transfer coefficient U = 116–140 W/(m²·K)).
4. Moisture Removal: Evaporated water vapor or solvent vapor is continuously extracted through the vacuum pipeline, achieving efficient drying.

Technical Highlights

 

Our Double Cone Vacuum Dryer offers numerous advantages, with the following features standing out in particular:

1. Low-Temperature Drying Protection: Vacuum operation enables drying at low temperatures (40–80°C), preventing the decomposition or oxidation of heat-sensitive components.

2. High Efficiency and Energy Savings: Thermal efficiency is more than double that of conventional ovens, and indirect heating prevents material contamination.

3. Superior Uniformity: The combination of double-cone rotation and a vacuum environment ensures drying uniformity within ±1%, eliminating localized overheating or undried "dead zones."

4. Sealed Safety: Fully enclosed operation makes it suitable for toxic, hazardous, flammable, or explosive materials, while low oxygen levels (<3%) reduce the risk of oxidation.

5. Multifunctional Integration: Simultaneous drying and mixing reduce processing steps; the system is also suitable for applications requiring solvent recovery.

6. Easy Cleaning and Maintenance: With no internal agitation mechanisms and smooth inner walls, the unit facilitates CIP/SIP cleaning and complies with pharmaceutical industry hygiene standards.

 

Application

 

Double Cone Vacuum Dryers are widely used in the following fields:
1. Biopharmaceuticals: Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs), antibiotics, biological products, traditional Chinese medicine extracts, etc.
2. Fine Chemicals: Dyes, pigments, catalysts, resins, pesticides, etc.
3. Food Products: Food additives, probiotics, health supplements, fruit powders, etc.
4. Energy Materials: Lithium battery materials, ceramic powders, metal powders, etc.
5. Others: Rare earth materials, nuclear industry raw materials, flammable and explosive substances, etc.
