ANDRITZ Drum drying system DDS

Drying and granulating municipal and industrial sludges

The ANDRITZ drum drying system, DDS, dries and granulates different types of municipal, industrial, and agricultural sludges. The dewatered sludge is granulated in a mixer tailored to the application. It is then dried in the triple-pass drum (three concentric cylinders revolving around a joint axis) in a convective drying process to < 10% residual moisture. The sludge is conveyed pneumatically by the stream of hot gases, ensuring an evenly dried, pasteurized product.
