Design notes

Dryness, carryover, corrosion and fouling must be established for the actual feed.
Vapor handling includes appropriate entrainment separation and condensation.

Indicative process overview. Equipment tags identify functional blocks only. Final PFDs, P&IDs, duties, sizes, valves and instruments are developed from the approved project design basis.

PROCESS & EQUIPMENT DETAILS

How agitated thin film dryer (atfd) fits your process.

Operating principle

Thin-film drying for suitable concentrates with product-specific thermal and fouling evaluation.

Thermal concentration removes water by evaporation and increases nonvolatile solids concentration. MEE, MVR, crystallization and ATFD use different heat-transfer and solids-handling arrangements.

Engineering checks

Feed mass flow and full salt chemistry
Boiling-point elevation, fouling and corrosion
Heat and mass balance with utility basis
Condensate quality and final solids route

Configuration & equipment

Feed distribution assembly
Heated cylindrical shell
Rotor and wiping / agitation elements
Drive and bearing arrangement
Vapour outlet and collection
Dried-solids discharge

Configuration options are reviewed against the project duty. Supply quantities and final scope are defined in the approved proposal.
