Method and apparatus for removing a flue sig of solid finely divided material.

摘要

In a process of removing liquid from a particulate solid material the material is passed through a row of upwardly open, elongated interconnected cells and superheated steam is introduced into said cells at their lower ends in a manner so as to impart to the particles a whirling movement, during which dried particles are lifted out of the cells and into a common transfer zone and from said zone down into a discharge cell with no steam supply. The dried material thus introduced into the discharge cell is discharged together with material which has passed the row of cells. …??The invention eliminates the need for effecting a preceding disintegration of the solid particulate material.
