Crown Milling Flash Dryers

Features and Advantages of Crown Milling Flash Dryers

  • Dries and de-agglomerates in a single step through continuous direct contact
  • Once through product flow and short residence time protects temperature sensitive materials
  • Adjustable residence time provides sufficient time for drying or other chemical reactions
  • Static classifier sends finer dry material to the product outlet, retaining larger particles in the air stream until dry
  •  Vertical construction and small footprint minimizes space requirements
  • Energy efficient complete Custom Engineered Drying Systems

Crown Milling provides two distinct drying technologies: Standard Flash Dryers and Milling Flash Dryers

Standard Flash Dryers

Provides efficient drying of a variety of fine and coarse materials including: Fibers, Fish Meal, Clay, Metallic Powders, Pigments, Polymers, Grains and Starches.
Additional features include:

  • Uniform product treatment due to even material dispersion in hot air streams
  • Disperser ventilator for breaking up large agglomerates without producing fines
  • One moving part in airstream minimizes maintenance costs

Milling Flash Dryers
For drying materials where a discrete and fine end product is desired including: Powders, Filter and Centrifuge cakes, Back-mixed Slurries, Pigments, Zeolite and Calcium Carbonate.
Additional features include:

  • No moving parts: particle-to-particle collisions achieve fine product
  • Jet milling principles preserve particle distribution present in wet feed
  • Slurries atomized directly in dryer when desired
