The initial heat transfer rate is high, causing an immediate and considerable drop in gas temperature, which prevents overheating of the material and the dryer shell. The final product is in contact with the gas at its lowest temperature, enabling the moisture content to be readily controlled, usually by maintaining the dryer exhaust gas

As the drum rotates, lifting flights pick up the material and drop it through the air stream in order to maximize heat transfer efficiency. When working with agglomerates, the tumbling action imparted by the dryer offers the added benefit of further rounding and polishing the granules.

Aggregate heating and drying is accomplished with various types of dryers, depending on whether a batch or continuous process is used. The continuous mix process uses aggregate drum dryers, designed to heat and dry measured quantities of gravel, sand, and other fillers by tumbling the damp contents down the length of a rotating drum.

Optimizing aggregate dryer efficiency 1 Courtesy of . Apr 23 2018· Granular heat transfer is an important mechanism in many industrial applications While convective heat transfer in multiphase systems is common in some industrial applications radiation and conduction are dominant modes and must be considered An application in which all modes are critical is an aggregate dryer in a hot mix ...

For verification purposes, the aggregate temperature is recorded at a drum plant facility, and thermodynamics and heat transfer principles are used to predict the aggregate temperatures. It has been observed that for the HMA mix, the temperature predicted for larger-size aggregate shows good agreement with the recorded value.

Low-temperature thermal desorption (LTTD), also known as low-temperature thermal volatilization, thermal stripping, and soil roasting, is an ex-situ remedial technology that uses heat to physically separate petroleum hydrocarbons from excavated soils. Thermal desorbers are designed to heat soils to temperatures sufficient to cause constituents to volatilize and desorb (physically separate ...

aggregate drum dryer used in the production of hot mix asphalt. To be properly coated by the asphalt binder, aggregate must be completely dried, a process accomplished in a counter flow drum heated by a direct fire burner. Attached flighting is positioned inside the drum to facilitate heat transfer.

A heat exchange chamber can be added to the aggregate dryer to heat the RAP with aggregates in the combustion area of the dryer (figure 6-7). Higher RAP percentages are possible because RAP has a longer residence time with the superheated aggregates, and because RAP is heated conductively with aggregate in the vicinity of the ...
