Silica Sand Drying Machine

Silica sand, also is called quartz sand, after being washed and dried, then to be classified into different size range, the dry product has a wide application in different field. 

Combining the past years' drying experience, Silica sand drying machine from Sunco Machinery is ideal for mineral material such as quartz sand, river sand, yellow sand, etc. 

The application of silica sand mainly are as follows:

>>> main raw material of glass industry.

>>> widely used in manufacturing high-purity metal silicon, silicon powder, optical fiber and other industries.

>>> Quartz sand has the characteristics of high temperature resistance and small coefficient of thermal expansion. It can be used to make the embryo and glaze of porcelain, high silica brick for kiln, ordinary silica brick, etc., so that it has fire resistance and high temperature resistance.

>>> mainly used as smelting additive, solvent, silicon metal and ferrosilicon alloy.

>>> As raw material for producing sodium silicate, anhydrous silicic acid, silicon compound and water glass.

Before to use the silica sand, usually firstly needs to wash it, then use silica sand drying machine to get rid of the water, finally use vibrating screen to separate the quartz sand into different size range.

For quanrtz sand, it contain surface water, just if the heat is sufficient, and the water is easy to be got rid of. What is more, the silica sand can bear high temperature drying mode. 

Silica sand drying machine is to use high temperature flue gas to heat and evaporate the water into vapor, meantime the wet sand also is heated and dispersed by the dryer inner cylinder and inner lifting plates.  It is one continuous drying process, and the water can be got rid of quickly within about 20 minutes, then get the dry product.

One whole unit of silica sand drying line mainly includes hot flue gas system, wet material feeding system, dry product discharging system, rotary dryer machine, exhaust air system, dust collection device, etc.
