ABSTRACT A mathematical model is developed to predict the performance of single-stage and multi-stage drying systems using spouted beds. The model uses unsteady state analysis for batch operation to simulate the steady state operation of a continuously fed spouted bed. A parametric study is carried out to study the effect of the following parameters on the performance of a single-stage grain drying system: air flow rate per unit mass of the grain in the bed, ambient air temperature and humidity, initial and target moisture contents, the residence time in the bed, and the effectiveness of the heat exchanger to recover the thermal energy in the exhaust air. The parametric study is also extended to investigate the effect of these parameters (except ambient air temperature and humidity) on the performance of the multi-stage system. In addition, the number of stages is also included in the latter study. The results are presented in terms of charts which may be adopted for the design of such systems. 相似文献

Abstract Urease activity, cracking, and breakage are important factors in considering the quality of raw soybean for feed meal industries. A two-dimensional spouted bed dryer was investigated to determine its capability for thermally inactivating the urease enzyme and maintaining its other qualities. The experimental results have shown that the drying kinetics of soybean in a two-dimensional spouted bed dryer are of the form described in the thin layer drying. The expression for the model parameter in Newton's law of cooling equation accounting for the moisture contents and inlet air temperatures was developed. The initial moisture content and inlet air temperature conditions cause cracks in the kernels. The strong collision between kernels and deflector because of high superficial velocity leads to high percentage of broken soybeans in the spout region. However, the velocity of 15.9 m/s can reduce the breakage below 5%. The inactivation of urease at low-to-moderate moisture content is suitably described by the first order kinetics. The modified Monod equation is applied when the moisture content is higher than 26% dry basis due to the inhibitory effect of water content on the inactivation rate. To complete urease inactivation and maintain protein quality, the temperatures of 150°C should be used. 相似文献

Microwave-assisted spouted bed (MSBD) drying of lettuce cubes was investigated experimentally. Response surface methodology was used to optimize the process with spouting air temperature, microwave power level, and superficial air velocity. The dried product obtained was compared with that obtained using other drying technologies such as hot air drying, air spouted bed drying, vacuum microwave drying, and vacuum freeze drying. The comparison is based on the rehydration ratio, chlorophyll content of the product, color, and the drying time required. 相似文献

A new spouted-bed configuration (rectangular cross-section with air entry through two bottom slots) was investigated as a dryer of milk and a paste mixture of milk and blackberry pulp. The aim was to analyze hydrodynamic stability and the effects of operating conditions on powder production efficiency. For the best conditions of paste-feeding flow rate, air temperature and inert type, hydrodynamic was stable and powder production efficiency was greater than 75%. The slot-rectangular spouted bed allowed for tripling of the paste-feeding flow rate at a lower air velocity compared to the conventional geometry, showing its potential for process scale-up. 相似文献

ABSTRACT The continuously operated Mechanically Spouted Bed (MSB) dryer of high evaporative capacity can be advantageously used to produce fine powder from paste-like materials, slurries, suspensions and sludges. Due to the thin layer formed on the surface of the spherical inert particles intensive heat and mass transfer occur and the drying process takes place in the constant rate period. Steady state drying conditions can be achieved when the total operational time of partial processes of inert bed drying does not exceed the cycle time of the inert particles. A laboratory scale MSB dryer has been equipped with a computerised measuring, data acquisition and control system. In the knowledge of the hydrodynamic characteristics of the MSB and giving the enthalpy and mass balances over the dryer a calculation method has been developed for control of drying process. 相似文献

ABSTRACT he performance of a laboratory scale jet spouted bed (JSB) for drying rice flour slurry was studied. The bed consisted of ceramic balls (5028 mm diameter) and the rice flour slurry was sprayed onto the moving particle surface near the inlet part. All the experiments were carried out at the jet spouting regime. This regime has high bed void fraction and violent movement and collision of bed particles. As a result, the dried product layer is attrited from particle surface as a fine powder and entrained from the bed by the spouting air. The experimental result were presented to show the effects of static bed height, inlet air flow rate and temperature, and feed concentration and flow rate on the outlet air temperature, thernal efficiency, and mean particle size and moisture content of the product. Asimple mathematical model, which is based on the conservation of mass and energy equations, was developed. Predicted results agreed well with those obtained from the experiment. 相似文献

A draft tube spouted bed dryer with inert particles was used for drying suspensions. The effects of the operating conditions on dryer throughput and product quality were investigated. Experiments were performed in a cylindrical column 215 mm in diameter with a draft tube 70 mm in diameter and 900 mm in length. The bed was made of polyethylene particles, 3.3 mm in diameter with a density of 921 kg/m3. The fungicide Zineb, calcium carbonate, calcium stearate and pure water were used as feeding materials. A drying model using the continuity and momentum equations for turbulent accelerating two‐phase flows and conventional rate equations is proposed and discussed. The work is relevant for estimating dryer performance. 相似文献

A study has been conducted on the performance of a draft tube conical spouted bed for drying fine particles. Batch operation has been performed with nonporous, porous, and open-sided draft tubes in order to ascertain the optimum configuration of this internal device. The nonporous draft tube requires the lowest minimum spouting velocity. Nevertheless, the solid circulation rate and the drying efficiency of the open-sided draft tube are superior to any other spouted bed configuration. Moreover, it allows for reducing the height of the fountain and, consequently, the height of the drying equipment. 相似文献

The objective of this work was to derive and experimentally verify a hybrid CST/neural network model to determine the moisture content of the powders produced during paste drying in a spouted bed and describe the highly coupled heat and the mass transfer. The model was derived from overall energy and mass balances with effective drying kinetics given by a neural network. Simulations were performed in MatLab and drying experiments for model verification were carried out for different pastes in a conical, semi-pilot-scale spouted bed. 相似文献

A software for simulating the drying operation of diluted suspensions in conical spouted beds of inert particles has been developed. This computer program combines the fluid flow and the solids circulation models with the drying kinetic equations. The simulated results for drying animal blood in a spouted bed of inert particles compare with data reported in the literature. 相似文献

Usually immobilization is a requirement for the use of enzymes as an industrial biocatalyst. In this work, endophytic fungus Cercospora kikuchii lipase was immobilized by covalent binding on agricultural by-products and microcrystalline cellulose. The enzyme support system was submitted to spouted bed drying. Lipase immobilized on microcrystalline cellulose with 1.5% of glutaraldehyde showed the best results, presenting 179.1% of the original activity after drying, followed by rice husk (173.9%), corn stover (169.8%), sugarcane bagasse (157.3%), green coconut fiber (102.3%), and corncob (99.8%). The immobilized derivatives obtained showed a decreased enzyme activity with an average of only 17.31%, whereas the enzyme in its free form lost 85.8% of its initial activity after storage for 6 months. The operational stability showed that the biocatalysts prepared retained an average of 67.2% of the initial activity after five reuse cycles. The results showed that the use of agricultural by-products as low-cost support material associated with the spouted bed drying is promising and can contribute to industrial application of biocatalysts. 相似文献

Gas-particle flow behavior in a spouted bed of spherical particles was simulated using the Eulerian-Eulerian two-fluid modeling approach, incorporating a kinetic-frictional constitutive model for dense assemblies of the particulate solid. The interaction between gas and particles was modeled using the Gidaspow drag model and the predicted hydrodynamics is compared with published experimental data. To investigate drying characteristics of particulate solids in axisymmetric spouted beds, a heat and mass transfer model was developed and incorporated into the commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code FLUENT 6.2. The kinetics of drying was described using the classical and diffusional models for surface drying and internal moisture drying, respectively. The overall flow patterns within the spouted bed were predicted well by the model; i.e., a stable spout region, a fountain region, and an annular downcomer region were obtained. Calculated particle velocities and concentrations in the axisymmetric spouted bed were in reasonable agreement with the experimental data of He et al. (Can. J. Chem. Eng. 1994a, 72:229; 1994b, 72:561). Such predictions can provide important information on the flow field, temperature, and species distributions inside the spouted bed for process design and scale-up. 相似文献
