TORBED Dryer in a repeat application: outperforming industrial belt and rotary drum dryers.
We are delighted to have taken a repeat order for three TORBED Dryers to be used for drying potato granules. Although at 4.5m in diameter they are of significant size, they are far smaller than belt dryers or rotary drum dryers of equivalent capacity. Designed ...

The TORBED As Industrial Waste Combustor.
In parallel with our technology’s development from its initial mineral applications to processing food, we also began what was to become another important theme in the life of our technology, the treatment of industrial waste. Our initial step on this road was the use of ...

Trialling As a Substitute for an Industrial Belt Dryer: An Unexpected and Unhelpful Process Step.
Testing is in Torftech’s DNA. One particular set of tests had an unexpected outcome. We have been involved in some interesting concepts brought to us to use our TORBED reactors for new applications. These included, among others, the drying of krill as an alternative to ...

Beyond Industrial Belt Dryers and Rotary Kiln Dryers.
We sold our first dryer in 1989. Since then, the number has climbed to 43, divided more or less evenly between food and biomass applications with a few mineral applications completing the list. TORBED dryers are more compact and less complex than standard industrial industrial ...

Beyond Flames, Heat and Rotary Kilns
As we continue our series on historic developments of the TORBED Technology, we reach 1987 and the development of a process that is beyond the capabilities of Rotar kilns and Circulating Fluidized Beds. A well-known British oil company tested a TORBED processor for removal of ...
