Introduction of Yeast Dryer
The yeast dryer adopts an indirect heating mode, heating the rotating drum to evaporate the water from the yeast slurry adhering to its surface. It is especially suitable for the recycling of brewery yeast. The yeast dryer is also suitable for drying liquid raw materials or viscous materials in the chemical, dye, pharmaceutical, food, metallurgy, and other industries.
The core technology lies in temperature control, the yeast temperature must not exceed 80 ℃, which ensures the biological activity of the dried yeast. Many drying parameters of our yeast dryer can be adjusted, such as the concentration of the feed material, the thickness of the coating material film, the temperature of the heating medium, and the rotation speed of the drum, etc. The thermal efficiency can reach more than 80%.
Advantages of Yeast Dryer
Preserves Bioactivity
The design fully accounts for the thermal sensitivity of yeast, preserving its biological activity.
Premium Cast-Steel Drum
The drum in contact with yeast is made of high-standard cast steel, anti-corrosive and non-polluting.
Short Drying Time
A wet film of 0.5–1.5 mm forms on the drum wall and the whole cycle takes only 10–15 seconds, ideal for heat-sensitive materials.
Energy-Saving Conduction Heating
Conduction heating ensures minimal heat loss, high thermal efficiency and reduced energy consumption.
Compact & Easy to Maintain
Compact structure with a small footprint, simple operation and easy maintenance.
Wide Applications
Also suitable for drying sludge materials in the food, chemical, pharmaceutical and other industries.
Working Principle of Yeast Dryer
The drying degree of the yeast can be controlled by adjusting the pressure of the steam and the speed of the dryer.
Firstly, the yeast slurry to be dried is put into the preheating tank and preheated to about 50℃. Then, it is conveyed by a feed pump into the lower part of the dryer tank. The drying drum is then immersed to a depth of about 60-80mm, and its rotating outer surface is coated with a uniform layer of yeast. At the same time, hot steam (with a pressure of 0.15-0.3Mpa) is supplied through pipes to the internal wall of the drying drum. Thus, heat is transferred to the external wall and then to the yeast film, evaporating the moisture in the yeast film. After the yeast slurry has been dried, it is scraped off and lands at the outlet for collection. The drying degree of the yeast can be controlled by adjusting the steam pressure and the drum speed.
