Hollow Paddle Dryer

The Hollow Paddle Dryer is an indirect heat transfer dryer ideal for continuous drying of sludges, pastes, filtration cakes, and free-flowing solids. It features twin or quad shafts with intermeshing hollow paddles that maximize heat transfer area.

Product Details

The Hollow Paddle Dryer operates by transferring heat indirectly through the jacketed trough and the hollow wedge-shaped paddles mounted on intermeshing shafts. The unique wedge design provides excellent local mixing and self-cleaning behavior as the shafts rotate in opposite directions.

Since the heat is transferred via contact rather than hot air, gas flow requirements are minimal, reducing dust carryover and making it highly efficient for solvent recovery and odor control.
