Precision Drying for Efficient Sludge Management
GTI Dryers designs sludge dryers to achieve uniform moisture reduction while minimizing odour, pathogens, and transportation costs.
Typical operating parameters include:
- Feed Moisture: 40–85%
- Final Moisture: 10–30% (application dependent)
- Drying Temperature: 80–220°C
- Product Temperature: 60–120°C
- Residence Time: 20–120 minutes
- Thermal Efficiency: Up to 85%
- Moisture Uniformity: ±1%
- Continuous Evaporation Capacity: 100 kg/hr to 20 TPH
The optimized drying process significantly reduces sludge volume and weight, improving storage, transportation, incineration, co-processing, landfill diversion, or conversion into refuse-derived fuel (RDF), biofuel, compost, or other value-added products.
