POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS

How is works:

The technology uses the conveying media over a set of screws which have an integral cooling chamber for any liquid (water, refrigerant, etc.).  This can actually act as your evaporator to provide pressurized vapor to power a turbine generator.  In another application, thermal liquid can be run through the core of the screws (internally) while the conveyed media on top provides heating or cooling.  Note that this system can be used as the condenser (cool media) as well as a evaporator/boiler (heated media).

Cooling:

1. •Inlet Temperatures up to 1600° F and Outlet Temperatures as low as 30° F
   

2. •Ash from coal fired power plants
   

3. •Sewage and other waste products
   

4. •Mineral products such as fluorspar, iron oxide, gypsum, bauxite, croyolite and the high temperature calcines
   

5. •Chemical products such as flake caustic, phospate, soda ash, coke char, carbon, plastics, silicates, etc.
   

6. •Food products such as salt, sugar, flour, cake mix, pie fillings, ground meat, etc.
   

7. •Meal cakes such as cottonseed, flax seed, soybean, etc.
   

8. •Foundry Sand
   

9. •Producer water
   

10. •Oil from deep wells
    

11. •Sawdust, chips, pellets, RDF
    

12. •Cement Process Plants
    

13. •Saltwater
    

 

Heating:

1. •Heating up to 700° F

FEATURES & ADVANTAGES

Adaptability to Process

1. •No direct contact with the heat exchange medium
   

2. •Close control of material as to temperature and time of treatment
   

3. •Control of quantity of heat exchange agent
   

4. •Individual control of temperature of heat exchange agent in each screw or tier. On heat sensitive products, the heat exchange agent can be introduced into each tier individually at the desired temperature
   

5. •One or all of the functions of heating, drying and cooling to be done continuously in the same unit
   

6. •Heat transfer agent may be circulated either parallel or counter current to the flow of the material
   

7. •Compact design is ideal for vacuum processing
   

8. •Inert gas atmospheres readily maintained in material compartment
   

9. •Sticky materials can be handled due to positive conveying action of multiple screws
   

10. •Can be operated on an incline
    

11. •Can be constructed with material that can resist high heat and corrosive product.
    

12. •Equipment can be adapted to process different product
    

13. •Gentle agitation and mixing with freedom from particle degradation
