Applications and Advantages of Vacuum Dryers

Drying is the process of the removal of the water or solvents by the process of evaporation; hence the output of dryer must be a solid material in the form of any defined structure or powder. To achieve the dried output the heat is applied to evaporate water or solvents.
What if I say we have to dry the heat sensitive material; how will dry them if heat is applied to evaporate the water or solvent contents then material itself can get harmed as being the heat sensitive material, hence the special provisions required to dry such heat sensitive materials. To dry such heat sensitive materials it’s required to lower down the environmental pressure, as the water and many solvents reach to boiling point at lower temperature with the pressure is lower by creating the vacuum, hence this process is known as vacuum drying (#vacuumdrying). The marriage of heat and vacuum together have proven as very effective source of the drying at relatively lower temperature, the moisture content in the material dried via vacuum dryers are lower as compared to normal dryer, those are not using the vacuum.
We at KERONE are specialized in manufacturing the superior quality and customized vacuum dryers contacting various type of drying technologies such as microwave vacuum dryer, hot water vacuum dryer, electrical vacuum dryer and etc.
Advantages of the Vacuum dryers:

  1. Vacuum dryers are very efficient heat sensitive
  2. Materials can be dryers in containers or enclosures
  3. Average drying temperature is much lower than standard dryers 
  4. Drying action becomes faster as heat is easily transferred throughout the body of the dryers, due to its large surface area
  5. Dries large moisture as compared to normal dryers 
  6. Quality of dries material is better than that of the normal dryers

Limitation of vacuum dryers:


  1. Vacuum Drying process is batch type drying process (#dryingprocess) It has low efficiency.
  2. Vacuum dryers are expensive 
  3. Vacuum dryers require skilled labour to operate 
  4. Cost of maintenance are high

Application of the Vacuum dryers:
The Vacuum dryers find application in various type of the industries such as:


  1. Chemical process industries
  2. Food processing 
  3. Pharmaceutical
  4. Plastic
  5. Timber
  6. Paper and other industries

Different Types of Sterilization Process

  Sterilization can be accomplished by an amalgamation of heat, chemicals, irradiation, high pressure and filtration such as steam under pressure, dry heat, ultraviolet radiation, gas vapour sterilants, chlorine dioxide gas etc. Successful sterilization strategies are necessary for working in a lab and negligence of this could lead to severe consequences, it could unexpectedly cost a life. So what are the more frequently utilized methods of sterilization in the laboratory, and how do they work? The Sterilization is conveyed out by the methods according to requirement. The methods are: 1. Moist Heat Sterilization 2. Dry Heat Sterilization 3. Gas Sterilization and Others. Moist Heat Sterilization:  Moderate pressure is utilized in steam sterilization. Steam is utilized under pressure as a means of accomplishing an elevated temperature. It is dominant to confirm the accurate quality of steam is utilized in order to keep away the problems which follow, superheating of the steam, f...

Electromagnetic Energy in Food Processing

  The use of electromagnetic energy in food processing is considered with respect to food safety, nutritional quality, and organoleptic quality. The results of nonionizing radiation sources such as microwave and radio-frequency energy and ionizing radiate on sources. Nonionizing microwave energy sources are more and more used in home and industrial food processing and are well-accepted by the end users. But, even though new-fangled Food and Drug Administration approval of low and intermediate ionizing radiation dose levels for grains and further plants products. Microwave  and  radio frequency  energy are allotments of the electromagnetic spectrum that can redeem heat to foods selectively and systematically. Explicitly, microwaves interrelate with water in foods to heat preponderant those allotments that are wet. End users are usual with microwave ovens as household appliances used to warm and cook foods, defrost frozen foods, and pop popcorn. On an industrial scale,...

Application and Popular Uses of Graphite

  Graphite, archaically referred to as plumbago, is a crystalline type of the element carbon with its atoms organized in a very hexagonal structure. It happens naturally during this kind and is the most stable kind of carbon under standard conditions. Under high pressures and temperatures it converts to diamond. Graphite is utilized in pencils and lubricants. It’s a good conductor of heat and electricity. Its high conductivity makes it helpful in electronic product like electrodes, batteries, and solar panels. The principal types of natural graphite, each occurring in different types of ore deposits, are A crystalline small flake of graphite (or flake graphite) occurs as isolated, flat, plate-like particles with hexagonal edges if unbroken. When broken the edges can be irregular or angular; Amorphous graphite: very fine flake graphite is sometimes called amorphous; Lump graphite (or vein graphite) occurs in fissure veins or fractures and appears as massive platy intergrowths of fib...
