Advantages

The drum dryer is one of the very few technologies that can dry sticky, pasty, as well as viscous products.

The technology is based on indirect heating of the product, which makes energy consumption very low. Drum drying is one of the most thermally efficient drying solutions.

Contrary to a spray dryer, a drum dryer works better with higher solids in the feedstock so long it is still pumpable. It won’t require the product to be diluted as with a spray dryer, resulting in substantial energy savings.

The drum dryer is not a multiple-floor solution. The entire drying process fits in most process rooms. This saves capital-intensive buildings.
