Disc Dryer

The Disc Dryer is a cornerstone technology in modern, energy-efficient fish meal plants, renowned for its gentle yet highly effective indirect drying of protein-rich materials like fish slurry and press cake.

It utilizes rotating discs to distribute heat evenly across the material, ensuring efficient moisture removal.

High Thermal Efficiency & Low Steam Consumption: Significantly reduces operating costs for fish meal plants.”

Gentle, Indirect Drying: Minimizes protein denaturation and heat damage, ensuring high-quality fish meal protein.”

Compact Design & Small Footprint: Ideal for space-constrained fish meal processing lines.”

Easy Operation & Low Maintenance: Robust construction suited for the demanding fish processing environment.”

Effective Odor Control: Indirect drying and enclosed design help manage fish meal plant odors.”

Disc Dryer is designed to perform several key functions:

Drying: Efficiently removes moisture from materials to produce a stable, dry product.

Heat Recovery: Utilizes advanced heat recovery systems to reuse waste heat, improving energy efficiency.

Consistent Output: Ensures uniform drying and consistent product quality.

Environmental Protection: Reduces emissions and environmental impact through efficient drying and advanced filtration systems.

As the material travels over the series of slowly rotating discs heated internally by steam, moisture is gently evaporated through indirect contact.

The adjustable disc rotation speed and staged heating zones allow precise control over drying time and temperature profile, crucial for preserving protein quality and preventing overheating/scorching in sensitive fish material. The dried product is discharged from the bottom disc.
