Fluidized Bed Drying (FBD) is a vital step in the manufacturing of many powders, granules, and crystals. As opposed to traditional methods, FBD offers faster dry times with uniform drying conditions. If properly implemented, FBD provides an ideal solution for the gentle drying of your products.
FBDs operate by circulating heated air suspending the product and ensuring that each granule is being dried. This process is regulated by the heat of the air, the force of the updraft from the fan, and the time spent in the dryer.
Moisture is measured traditionally through Loss on Drying (LOD). This method, while affordable, has a significant amount of error involved. Measurements are taken offline, not in real-time, leading to increased production time and product rework.
AOTF-NIR spectroscopy is a non-destructive and rapid test method for determining moisture in an FBD.
Monitor drying for Every Batch: The flexible design allows you to move the unit from FBD to FBD.
Control Your Drying: Continuous monitoring provides accurate control of your drying process.
Successful implementation of a Brimrose AOTF-NIR spectrometer results in:
Increased Control Over Drying
Shortened Dry Time
Real-Time, In-line Monitoring
Extremely Fast Measurement Speed
