Specially designed lifters allows the material to be showered into the hot or cold gas stream
Features
Metso has installations all over the world that serve almost any industry's cooling and drying needs. What sets Metso apart from the competition is the specially designed lifters that allow the material to be showered into the hot or cold gas stream. A low velocity is required, which means a low particulate carryover occurs, which improves the product yield.

Rotary Drying and Cooling is used in a wide variety of applications and industries where there is a need for a large throughput of material to be processed. The Rotary equipment is suited for different sized particles, large and small, and different moistures as well. Product temperatures can be easily controlled in the equipment, and the process know how of Metso allows for a consistent process product.
The Rotary Drying and Cooling equipment utilizes a hot gas stream or cold gas stream that mixes with the product. The product is mixed with the air stream by utilizing lifters that shower the product in the air stream. The mechanical lifting aides in breaking clumps, which aides in the drying process. The equipment is set on an incline and conveys material down the cylindrical shaft.
