Using Superheated Steam in Drying and Sterilization

Botanicals are received in whole, non-sterile form. BI Nutraceuticals sterilizes, mills, and packages the ingredient in sturdy, safe containers before shipping to customers. Photo courtesy of BI Nutraceuticals Using Superheated Steam in Drying and Sterilization It seems counterintuitive to use water vapor in a process to remove water or to heat materials that can be damaged by moisture, but suc...

Superheated Steam Drying at Atmospheric Pressure

Modelling the Drying of Porous Coal Particles in Superheated Steam

The modelling and simulation of drying porous coal particles in superheated steam was investigated in this paper. Improved transport and kinetic parameters as well as particle shrinkage were considered in arriving at the results. The resulting partial differential equation describing the drying process was solved numerically using the finite element analysis in addition to other useful equation...

Effect of colloidal Particles associated with the liquid bridge in sticking during drying in Superheated Steam

It is very important in the design of a drying system is to evaluate sticking behaviour of the materials goes under drying. A new approach to the sticking issue is applied in this study by carrying out a sticking test for the liquid associated with the materials under study. It was found that the liquid bridge is responsible of the initial sticking of the materials to the contact surface and th...

Superheated steam injection in North Кенкияк shallow heavy oil reservoir

This paper presents an integrated study on the superheated steam injection in the North Кенкияк Field, Kazakhstan. The methodologies cover investigation of mechanisms of superheated steam in recovery, lab experiment, and numerical simulation. The study indicates that the injection of superheated steam can cause rock wettability conversion which is favorable to recovery. The higher the heat enth...
