The document outlines the design procedure for a rotary dryer used to dry fertilizer from 5% to 1.5% moisture content. The key steps are: 1) Performing mass and heat balance calculations to determine moisture evaporated, dry solid mass, and total heat duty of 4.4 MJ/hr. 2) Sizing the dryer using the heat duty to calculate required air flow of ...

While a rotary dryer is always (or should have been) properly aligned at the time of commissioning, a number of factors can cause the dryer to fall out of alignment over time, necessitating realignment. Common reasons for which misalignment occurs include: If bases have settled. If tires and/or trunnions have been ground/resurfaced beyond 10% ...

The heatless desiccant dryer is the most expensive to operate as 15-20% of its rated flow capacity is consumed as purge air. The rotary drum dryer can lead to significant energy savings because of its unique design and controls. Even compared to a blower purge dryer, rotary drum dryers can save up to 50% of the lifecycle cost. Maintenance cost

MECHANICAL DESIGN OF PROCESS EQUIPMENTS 1. MECHANICAL DESIGN OF ROTARY DRIER Flight design: Number of flights = 3 x D. = 3 x2.09 =6.27 ≈ 7 flights are required using lip angle of 45°. Radial height is taken as 1/8 of diameter, Radial height = 2.09/8 = 0.2615m. Thickness of dryer: Let x be the thickness of drier.
