With COP31 approaching, it’s a good time to ask how much material it takes to build an industrial dryer and how much waste it can prevent over its working life. We’ve sold nearly 50 industrial
TORBED Industrial Gasifiers: Energy and Carbon Sequestration
Why gasify biomass? An industrial gasifier offers flexibility in power generation method, although it also brings some additional complexity and challenges. Gasification can also help make use of biomass rich in alkali metals. These materials can melt and sinter if overheated, making temperature control particularly ...
TORBED vs Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion Technology: Intense Mixing, Even Processing, Compact Design
Thorough, even processing starts with effective mixing. The TORBED technologies’ intense gas–solid mixing keeps particles moving rapidly through a compact reactor, promoting uniform thermal treatment, avoiding local hot spots and supporting consistent product quality. Intensive mixing is at the heart of TORBED’s performance. Our process ...
Torbed Technology Offers Efficient Alternative to Industrial Rotary Drum Dryers
Industrial facilities evaluating drying equipment now have a compelling alternative to traditional rotary drum dryers. Torbed processors, utilizing toroidal fluidized bed technology, deliver competitive throughput with superior energy efficiency and reduced footprint requirements. Modern Torbed units process up to 10 tonnes per hour, removing over ...
Energy Saving Alternatives To A Rotary Kiln For Calcining
Can we cool matters down? Below is a recent blog from one of our colleagues suggesting possibilities for calcining spodumene that might have radical implications for process temperatures. “Could microwave energy change the way we process lithium? I have spent much of my working life ...
The TORBED Advantage: Rethinking Rotary Kiln Calcining
Faster. Smaller. Simpler. Conventional rotary kilns have calcined materials the same way for over a century — slow, massive, and built around a compromise. TORBED technology changes the equation. Calcine in Seconds, Not HoursWhile rotary kilns need tens of minutes to several hours to calcine ...
Industrial Rotary Kiln: What’s In A Name?
In our mineral and businesses, we come across Rotary kilns regularly and they are described as such, whether being used to pyrolyse biomass for biochar or calcine minerals. For many applications we would argue that a TORBED processor would produce better outcomes. In the food ...
