A model for simulating the drying of paddy (Oryza sativa L.) in a continuous fluidised bed dryer was employed. Equipment and material models were applied to describe process. The equipment based on differential equations obtained by applying mass energy balances each element dryer. In case model, heat transfer rates single isolated particle considered. Simulation results verified comparison wit...

Heat transfer phenomena in batch fluidized bed dryer have been studied and analyzed using three phase model including solid phase, interstitial gas phase and bubble phase based on Rizzi model. New correlations of heat transfer coefficient to surrounding and convection heat transfer coefficient between solid and interstitial gas are being proposed. In addition, some modifications have been d...

Gasification has become an attractive technology that is capable of producing a rich syngas from a range of biomasses and other fuels. This syngas can then be further processed into liquid fuels through Fischer-Tropsch processes to provide an alternative to current fossil fuels or to provide local markets with a competitive fuel. The purpose of this study was to construct a four-inch bench scal...

The salt quality was studied by dewatering methods such as centrifugal hydro extraction, fixed bed dryer, and rotary drum dryer. effect of different particle sizes also analyzed. extractor is found to be effective when reducing the high-water content suitable for water after wash stage. Fixed dryers produce lower than dryers. A 1% can achieved using Finally, all extractors, dryers, are producti...
