Category | Usage Scenarios | Characteristics | Advantages | Disadvantages |
---|---|---|---|---|
Continuous Mesh Belt Dryer | Industrial herbal processing, high-volume food dehydration | Electric heating (max 220°C per IEC 60335), SUS304 stainless steel (FDA 21 CFR 174.230), mesh belt conveyor (2m/s belt speed ISO 5298) | ▲ Advanced model: 250°C max temp (ASTM C1058), Titanium components (ASTM F82) for extreme corrosion resistance | Higher initial cost compared to tray dryers; requires trained operators |
Tray Dryer | Small-scale production, batch processing | Gas heating (up to 180°C ASME BPVC), stainless steel trays (EN 1.4301), manual loading | Lower upfront cost, flexible for small batches (e.g., spices/herbs) | Labor-intensive, slower drying time (4–6 hours vs. 2 hours for mesh belt) |
Tunnel Dryer | Large-scale food processing (e.g., chips) | Gas/electric heating (200°C ASTM C1058), conveyor system (3m/s ISO 5298) | High throughput (500kg/h), continuous operation | Requires large floor space; energy-intensive (0.8 kWh/kg vs. 0.5 kWh/kg for mesh belt) |
Spray Dryer | Liquid/suspension drying (e.g., milk powder) | Hot air spray (300°C ISO 13732), cyclone separator (95% particle recovery) | Rapid drying (1–2 seconds), minimal product damage | Complex maintenance, not suitable for solid foods; costly to operate ($0.15/kg vs. $0.08/kg for mesh belt) |
Drum Dryer | High-volume liquid concentrates (e.g., tomato paste) | Rotating drum (surface temp 150°C ASME), indirect heating | High capacity (2,000kg/h), efficient energy use (0.3 kWh/kg) | Limited to liquid feedstock; requires specialized cleaning (24hr downtime post-use) |
Freeze Dryer | Delicate foods (e.g., fruits, pharmaceuticals) | Vacuum chamber (-50°C to 50°C ISO 2503), sublimation process | Retains nutrients/flavor, long shelf life (2–3 years) | Very high cost ($0.50/kg), slow process (8–12 hours) |
