The disposal of Waste Activated Sludge is a major problem. The paper presents several disposal routes. The ultimate steps in these routes are indirect drying and subsequent incineration. Although the design of the indirect dryers is straightforward from a required heat input, operating temperature difference between sludge bed and heating medium and the heat transfer coefficient, this coefficie...

several methods are used to decrease seed drying time and enhance the quality of dried seeds. influidization methods, good aeration occurs during the drying process. in this research, conditioned seedswith 20% d.b. moisture content were dried at 30°, 40°, 50° and 60°c using three bed conditions (fixed,minimum fluidized, fluidized). all experiments were done using a batch-type fluidized bed drye...

Drying of green peas in a Fluidized Bed Dryer (FBD) with inert particle, heated by combined sources of hot air and InfraRed (IR) radiation, has been experimentally and theoretically studied. For this purpose, an experimental set up was constructed. This setup was composed of a cylindrical bed dryer containing some inert particles which are fluidized by hot air. Some infrar...
