Research Abstract

Simplified drying process based on self-heat recuperation (SHR) has been proposed to reduce energy consumption. Specific energy consumption (SEC: kJ/kg-H_2O evaporated) of SHR drying process was evaluated at various air flow rates and compared with mechanical vapor recompression (MVR) drying process with superheated steam. Results show SEC of SHR can be reduced from 474 to 147 kJ/kg-H_2O evaporated by removing heat exchangers for sample preheating. The SEC of the simplified SHR process was only 1/16 of conventional drying process with heat recovery (2410 kJ/kg-H_2O evaporated) and 3/5 of MVR process.
