Cassava Drying Production Line

Customer: COFCO.  Sipsongpanna Jinggu Border Trade Limited Liability Company. Guangxi JIANQIANG Trading Company.

Project Classification: Agriculture and Forestry Industry

Dryer Type: DW Multilayer Belt Dryer

Description:

As one of the world's three major potatoes, cassava is widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions. In subtropical regions of China, cassava is the fifth largest crop after rice, sweet potatoes, sugar cane and corn. It plays an important role in crop layout, feed production and industrial applications, and has become the main processing starch and forage crops. Cassava starch can be used to make food and chemical products, such as alcohol, fructose, glucose, maltose, MSG, beer, bread, biscuits, crackers, fans, sauces, plastic film, plastic fibers, resins, coatings, adhesives and so on. Our company produces the multi - layer belt type dryer to be suitable for the cassava drying.

Material Characteristics:

 Initial moisture: 65-70%.

Final moisture: ≤18%.

Shape: δ5mm  sheet.

Equipment Performance:

Due to the seasonal planting of the material, the acquisition time is highly concentrated. If not timely drying, it is easy to rotten. The general drying equipment of high energy consumption, the natural drying is influenced by weather. Our company developed the multi - layer belt type dryer is very suitable for the material drying.

Drying Process Analysis and Working Principle:

The main engine is made up of 5-7 layer stainless steel mesh belt. It is driven by the chain on both sides, the two sides of the mesh belt is baffle, to prevent the material fall into the middle of the track.

Coal fired (or burning wood) energy saving stove provide hot air. The hot air is sent to the bottom of the dryer by the blower. It passes through the underlying mesh belt and takes away the moisture in the material. It passes through each layer of mesh belt, and the material carries on the counter current heat exchange. After it reaches the highest level, and the most wet material heat exchange, wet air basically reached saturation. It is discharged out of the air by the wind turbine. After the fresh cassava is cleaned, it is sent to the top of the first layer by the conveyor belt.

Equipment Advantage:

1. Heat of the hot air is repeatedly used, the final exhaust temperature is about 40, which is close to the natural air temperature. So the heat utilization rate of the equipment is very high. Reduce the drying cost. It is estimated that Drying per ton of wet cassava need to consume coal 90Kg and electricity consumption 25 KWH.

2. This equipment is simple to operate and easy to maintain.
