Wyssmont dryers, also known as Wyssmont Turbo-Dryers, are vertical tray dryers designed for continuous drying of difficult-to-handle materials. These systems use a series of slowly rotating trays within a stationary vertical housing, with heated air or inert gas passing through for efficient and uniform drying. With more than 47 years of expertise, IPP supplies used and surplus Wyssmont dryers sourced from 20 complete plant sites and backed by a vast inventory of over 15,000 process systems.

Wyssmont dryers are known for their ability to process sticky, heat-sensitive or abrasive products that would clog or degrade in other types of dryers. Their enclosed design also minimizes product loss and exposure to oxygen or contaminants.

Primary uses across industries

In chemical manufacturing, for drying catalysts, resins, pigments and specialty powders
In food processing, for drying spices, proteins, flavorings and extracts
In pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals, for intermediates, botanicals and bulk powders
In mining and minerals, for drying clays, salts and other abrasives

Types of materials processed

Sticky, thermally unstable or oxygen-sensitive solids
Slurries and pastes that require pre-drying and phase conversion
Fine powders, agglomerates and materials prone to fouling in traditional dryers

Common materials of construction

Built for durability and clean processing, Wyssmont dryers are typically constructed from:

Stainless steel for sanitary and corrosion-resistant applications
Carbon steel for general-purpose chemical and mineral drying
Special alloys for highly corrosive or reactive environments

Key features of Wyssmont dryers

Vertical tray design for gentle drying and easy product discharge
Continuous operation with consistent drying temperature across trays
Can operate under inert gas for solvent recovery or oxygen-sensitive materials
Low-maintenance, enclosed system for dust control and clean operation
Designed for thermal efficiency and precise moisture control
