Sewage Sludge Drying

The Thin Film Dryer offers an ideal solution for drying of municipal and industrial sludges to intermediate or high dry solid levels. The Buss-SMS-Canzler Thin Film Dryer can provide a fully dried product in various forms, suitable for the final purpose either in a single stage or in combination with a segmented disc dryer type Linear Dryer or Rovactor®.

The Linear Dryer is a perfect solution for drying the predried granules from the Thin Film Dryer up to 90% dry solids. The Linear Dryer is a heated U-type conveyor with a slow moving, heated shaft with specially designed transport scoops. The slow rotation of the impeller in combination with a relatively low filling height ensures gentle movement and transportation of the granules.
