When your process requires precise drying and efficient heat transfer, fluid bed dryers offer one of the most reliable solutions available. Backed by more than 47 years of experience, 20 complete process plant sites, and a vast inventory of 15,000+ pieces of process equipment, IPP supplies high-quality used fluid bed dryers ready for immediate shipment to your facility.
Fluid bed dryers are widely used for drying powders, granules, and crystalline materials across industries such as pharmaceuticals, food processing, chemicals, and minerals. The technology uses a perforated plate or bed to suspend the product in an upward flow of heated air. This “fluidization” creates intimate contact between the product and the drying air, enabling fast and uniform drying with precise temperature control.
Because fluid bed dryers achieve high drying rates without exposing products to excessive heat, they are particularly useful for heat-sensitive materials and products requiring tight moisture specifications. This versatility makes them ideal for:
To ensure compatibility across diverse processing environments, fluid bed dryers are commonly constructed from:
