Paddle dryers: How do they work?

Paddle dryers are contact dryers that employ a horizontal cylindrical tank in combination with a multi-vane agitator that is also oriented on the horizontal axis. The paddle agitator may be supported at both ends, but there are models that are supported on one side only, so that the agitator can be easily removed.

They have a jacket for heating and agitator to maximise heat transfer for the evaporation of the liquid. In some cases, a heating medium may also circulate through the agitator. Intense mixing eliminates temperature gradients in the product and ensures even moisture distribution in the product

The paddle dryer can operate under atmospheric or low-pressure conditions, but most equipment incorporates vacuum to aid the drying process, particularly for temperature-sensitive chemicals and pharmaceuticals. When a paddle dryer utilises the appropriate combination of vacuum and temperature, shorter drying times can be achieved.

Applications of paddle dryers

Thanks to their efficiency, paddle dryers can be used as the final drying step to remove moisture from cakes obtained from centrifuges, filter presses, disc filters or any other mechanical drying process. They are also used in:

  • In different processes in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry.

  • In the processing of food products that are sensitive to the effects of temperature, which could affect their flavour and scent properties.

On this website you will find paddle dryers with capacities starting at 2 litres that can be used in the development of R&D in laboratories or universities and also as part of quality control in the pharmaceutical, food or related industries - up to 4 000 litres for full scale properties.
