Quartz Sand Drying Machine by Sunco Machinery is ideal for drying silica sand with different capacity. After being dried by the quartz san drying machine, the moisture content of the silica san can be less than 0.1%.
Quartz Sand Drying Machine is well kown as silica sand dryer, rotary sand dryers, etc, and it is optimized and developed on the base of rotary drum dryer, and it is with the features of long durable, easy operation, convenient maintenance, etc.
As the moisture of quartz sand is surface water, then in order to enhance the heat efficiency and processing capacity, we need to increase the contact area between quartz sand and hot air as much as possible. Our quartz sand drying Machine achieves this aim perfectly. For one time drying, the quartz sand dryer can dry the silica sand to be below moisture 0.1% directly.
Quartz Sand Drying System Mainly includes Drum, gear, ring, carrier roller, air pipe, high pressure draught fan, reducer machine, chimney, cyclone dust catcher, 40mm thickness heat insulating layer, feeder, electric control box, belt conveyor, etc.
How does quartz sand drying machine work ?
Firstly, use one belt conveyor or bucket elevator to send the wet silica sand into the drum of quartz sand dryer.
On the inner wall of the cilinder/drum, there are many lifting plates which is welded according to one special methods. When the Silica Sand Dryer's drum is rotating, these lifting plates makes the silica sand up and down to mix with the hot air completely. Durng this process, the moisture is evaporated.
On the another side of the silica sand dryer, there is one high pressure draught fan which sucks out the steam, and then the steam goes into the cyclone dust separator.
In the cyclone dust separator, the dust inside the steam falls down and goes out through the discharging hole of the cyclone dust separator. The steam goes into atmosphere directly through the chimney which is connected to the cyclone dust separator.
