Many companies employ a Chemical Drier somewhere within their processes. On the Powder Technology Ltd web-site we list the complete range of Powder Drier, that we offer to the Pharmaceutical, Food or Chemical Industries. A Vacuum Tray Drier or Conical Drier can both be used as a Powder Dryer in these industries.
The PTL range of Vacuum Tray Drier are designed to provide a benign environment for the gentle removal of water or solvents under a vacuum. The quality of build of our Vacuum Tray Dryer is unmatched within the industry and provides an easily cleanable GMP finish.
Drying under vacuum is a widely used thermal process in many branches of industry. The objective of a vacuum drying oven is to promote gentle drying of high quality and value products containing water or solvents, without affecting any of the product characteristics.
During vacuum drying the pressure is reduced within the oven so that the water or solvents begin to evaporate at lower temperatures. The rate of drying can thus be optimized by careful control of the temperature and pressure.
A vacuum drying oven therefore consists of an oven with shelves for trays, a heating system, and a vacuum system, all kept in balance by a precise control system.
