For the buffer tank at the outlet of the vacuum dryer, is it better to introduce the flow tangentially or directly?
Thread Content
The material is dried using a double-cone rotary vacuum dryer at a drying temperature of around 40–50°C. The material contains some dust, and vacuum extraction is accomplished with a water ring-Rotary vane vacuum pump system. A buffer tank is installed between the dryer and this vacuum pump system. Should the inlet to the buffer tank at the outlet of the vacuum dryer be arranged tangentially or directly? That is, what is more effective in reducing dust from reaching the vacuum unit ； Additionally, is a condenser installed behind the buffer tank? If so, what are the benefits of having a condenser for the vacuum system? Please give me some advice, thank you!
1: How to get in isn’t that important. 2: If what is drawn out contains large amounts of organic solvents or other condensable gases, it is possible to add a condenser after the buffer tank; this is beneficial for the vacuum system as well and can also reduce water contamination. 3: To reduce dust from entering the vacuum unit, the best way is to install a dust filter in front of the unit’s intake opening.
