Continuous Fluidized Bed Cooling System
KERONE now renowned name in serving specialized need of customers with best quality and economical process Heating /cooling and drying products, manufactured in high quality environment by well trained and qualified workforce(special purpose machineries) .
Like a Fluidized Bed dryer, the Fluidized Bed Cooler also uses the principle of Fluidization for optimum exposure of surface for cooling action. These are simple, compact units designed to cool hot solid materials quickly down to any temperature above ambient.
The Fluidized Bed Cooler consists of 2 cylindrical bodies, separated by a Distributor plate. The Distributor plate, that is the prime plate of the “Wind Box”, includes a variety of Air Nozzles through that Cold atmospheric Air is admitted to fluidize the material. The material to be cooled, forms a fluidized bed due to the aeration of identical and thus maximum surface comes in contact with the cold air being provided by the nozzles. The bed contains variety of tubes carrying water in it. The spacing of the tubes is such that it provides maximum heat transfer area without interfering with fluidization.
Material to be cooled is fed from one end of the fluid bed and it moves along the bed in a fluid state to the other end of the fluid bed. The Cooled material leaves the Cooler via the discharge chute in to the vibrating feeder/conveyor. Cold Water flows in the counter current through the tubes that are completely immersed in the material bed. This is a system where no direct contact of cold water happens with the material. Most of the heat is removed by the cold water, air solely assists to keep the material in fluid state. The cooling water is utilized in another process or recirculated via a cooling tower/ spray pond.
KERONE is pioneer in application and implementation engineering with its vast experience and team of professionals. KERONE is devoted to serve the industry to optimize their operations both economically and environmentally with its specialized heating and drying solutions.
