Thin film dryers are specialized dryers designed to process viscous liquids, slurries, and pastes under vacuum or atmospheric conditions. These dryers use a rotating wiper system to spread the feed into a thin, turbulent film across a heated cylindrical surface, allowing for rapid moisture or solvent evaporation. With over 47 years of process equipment experience, IPP offers a global inventory of used, secondhand and surplus thin film dryers from 20 plant sites and more than 15,000 ready-to-ship systems.
Thin film technology is prized in industries requiring precise temperature control, short residence times, and gentle handling of sensitive compounds. The continuous design makes it ideal for solvent recovery, devolatilization and concentration tasks.
Thin film dryers must withstand corrosive materials, high temperatures and pressure differentials:
