Proposed is an equipment for reducing specific air pollutants generated from heated asphalt concrete with proportional control, which includes: a dryer for heating and drying aggregates and for burning harmful gases introduced through nozzles mounted thereon; a first dust remover for removing dust from the harmful gases emitted from the dryer; a fine dust remover for filtering fine dust from the remaining gases and dust; a bypass damper for returning some of the gases and dust emitted from the first dust remover to a second dust remover; the second dust remover for filtering the dust in the gases and dust emitted from the first dust remover; and a blower for feeding the gases exhausted from the second dust remover to the dryer, wherein clean gas exhausted from the fine dust remover is emitted to the air through an exhaust fan and a stack.

A method of processing steel grit may include moving steel grit into a pre-classifier, weighing the pre-classifier with steel grit being processed by the pre-classifier, and altering a functional process to process the steel grit based on the weight of the pre-classifier including the steel grit. A machine for processing steel grit may include a pre-classifier configured to process steel grit to remove debris from the steel grit. A support member may be configured to support the pre-classifier. Multiple rotatable link assemblies may connect the pre-classifier to the support member to enable the pre-classifier to freely rotate as a function of gravity when supported from the support member. A weight sensor may be configured to weigh the pre-classifier including steel grit contained in the pre-classifier.

A system and method for drying individual biomass units. Turbine exhaust heats ambient air to produce heated air, which passes through a conveyor system that carries a quantity of biomass product to an endpoint collection area. Heated air with fine product particles is ducted to a series of cyclonic particle separators and collected.

The invention relates to a method for drying moist products, in particular moist granules for producing pharmaceutical products through which a fluid medium flows in a reactor chamber of a bulk goods dryer and which are heated and placed on a fluid medium-permeable inflow base. The inflow base is vibrated via a vibrational drive in order to convey the products from a product inlet to a product outlet, and the fluid medium is supplied to separate chambers arranged upstream of an outlet and to the outlet after flowing through the inflow base and the product. One of the at least two separate chambers is preselectably closed off from the outlet by actuating a closing element such that after the closing element has been actuated, the supply of the fluid medium to the outlet is carried out via a chamber which is not closed by another closing element, and a fluid medium filter element paired with the closed chamber is cleaned via a pulse emitter after the closing element of said chamber is actuated in the closing direction while the fluid medium is continuously supplied to a non-closed chamber.

The present invention relates to a method of producing lignin with reduced amount of guaiacoland etylguaiacol in order to reduce the content of odorous substances by subjecting the ligninto a heating processing order to remove guaiacol.

A multi-functional slurry processing system (“VARCOR”) and associated methods is disclosed. The present examples provide a multi-functional slurry processing system incorporating systems and methods for separating liquid and solid components in slurries. In particular the systems and methods described herein produce clean water, dried solids, and potential concentration of desirable constituents with a boiling point lower than water. At least one example of the multi-functional slurry processing system provides a self-contained processing facility configured to efficiently convert high water-content slurries into its constituent solid and liquid fractions and subsequently generating and collecting clean water and concentrating desirable constituents with a boiling point lower than water. The multi-functional slurry processing system advantageously applies thermodynamic principles in a system which may include various combinations of a preheater, a degassing unit, a dryer, a steam filter, a compressor, a concentrating tower, and a condensation unit.

An electrostatic spray dryer for drying liquid into powder including an elongated cylindrical drying chamber having an electrostatic spray nozzle at an upper end and a powder collection vessel at a lower end. The powder collection vessel includes a removable and replaceable filter collections sock made of filter material for receiving and collecting dried powder from the drying chamber. For cleaning residual powder from an inside wall of the drying chamber, a scraper member is provided that is coupled by magnetic attraction to a manually removable driver on the external surface of the wall.

A lint catching system is provided for a clothes dryer. The lint catching system filters lint from exhaust air expelled from the clothes dryer.

A drying apparatus for granular materials in which granular materials in a drying tank are heated and dried; the drying apparatus includes a moving mechanism to move the granular materials in the drying tank; and a control section to control the moving mechanism so as to move the granular materials in the drying tank upon determining that temperature of the granular materials around a heating portion in the drying tank exceeds a glass transition temperature.
