In applications such as oilseeds processing, the conditioning stage represents a vital step for downstream processes. For example, oilseeds are heated and dried to prescribed temperatures and moisture levels prior to the oil extraction process.
Yet this conditioning stage is also energy-intensive, with steam consumption being the largest utility cost. Chemequip's vertical plate conditioning technology provides a more efficient solution to indirect heating and drying of oilseeds.
Vertical design eliminates plate abrasion
Plates typically last the unit’s
lifetime
Pull-and-push drying system ensures balanced air distribution
More efficient air extraction improves drying performance and guarantees uniform drying profiles
Uses up to 90% less energy compared to direct heating/drying methods
Reduction of air emissions, dust
and odors
Small installation footprint
Low maintenance, low operating costs
The oilseeds are transported vertically by mass flow from top to bottom through the channels among the Platecoil heat exchange plates. The heating
medium (hot water, thermal oil or steam) circulates through the internal passages of the Platecoil heat exchange plates, heating the material and
evaporating the water in the material.
