In cutting-edge manufacturing sectors such as fine chemicals, biopharmaceuticals, and high-end food additives, products often possess extremely high added value but are also exceptionally “delicate.” These materials, including active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), enzymes, probiotics, vitamins, and certain specialty polymers, are highly sensitive to heat and oxygen. Under conventional atmospheric hot air drying conditions, high temperatures can directly destroy their complex molecular structures, leading to a loss of activity. Meanwhile, oxygen in the air can trigger oxidative reactions, causing product discoloration, degradation, and severe quality impairment. Therefore, finding a solution that allows drying under “vacuum” and “low-temperature” conditions for these heat-sensitive and easily oxidized materials has become crucial to ensuring final product quality and safeguarding a company’s core value. Vacuum drying technology is the ultimate solution that has emerged and evolved to meet this demand.
DLZG Series Single Cone Screw Belt Vacuum Dryer: The Art of Low-Temperature Drying
The scientific principle behind vacuum drying lies in a fundamental concept of physics: the boiling point of a liquid decreases as the pressure of its surrounding environment is reduced. Inside a sealed vessel, by pumping out the air with a vacuum pump, the boiling point of water can drop dramatically from 100°C to 40°C, 30°C, or even lower when the system pressure is well below atmospheric pressure. This means that we can cause the water or other solvents in the material to “boil” and evaporate without heating it to a dangerous temperature. This is the charm of low-temperature vacuum drying.
As an expert with over 20 years of deep cultivation in the field of drying technology, Jiangsu Panfanqun Drying Equipment Factory Co., Ltd profoundly understands the ultimate pursuit of product quality in high-end manufacturing. Its DLZG Series Single Cone Screw Belt Vacuum Dryer is a multifunctional piece of equipment that integrates mixing, drying, and solvent recovery. It represents the forefront of modern vacuum drying technology and has been successfully applied in demanding production environments in more than 50 countries and regions worldwide. Its core advantages include:
1. Extremely Gentle Drying Process: The equipment operates under a high vacuum, which lowers the evaporation temperature of solvents to an extremely low level, thus perfectly avoiding any thermal damage to heat-sensitive materials. The oxygen-free environment fundamentally prevents oxidative reactions, ensuring the chemical stability and final purity of the product. It is the ideal choice for protecting product quality.
2. Efficient and Uniform Mixing and Heat Transfer: The DLZG Series dryer features a hollow central screw with an outer helical belt inside. Driven by a motor, the screw performs planetary rotation on its own axis and revolution along the conical vessel wall, gently lifting the material from the bottom to the top, and then allowing it to slide back down. This unique three-dimensional motion ensures thorough and uniform mixing of the material during the drying process, preventing agglomeration and dead zones. Simultaneously, a heating medium (such as hot water, steam, or thermal oil) can be passed through the jacket, conical bottom, and even the central screw and helical belt, creating a comprehensive heat transfer network that significantly improves heat transfer efficiency and shortens the drying cycle.
3. Fully Enclosed System for Safety and Environmental Protection: The entire drying process takes place within a completely sealed vessel, offering unparalleled safety for handling toxic, hazardous, or materials requiring strict aseptic operation, effectively protecting both operators and the production environment. Furthermore, the evaporated solvent vapors can be efficiently captured and recovered by a subsequent condensation system. This not only saves valuable raw material costs for the enterprise but also complies with increasingly stringent environmental regulations (VOC emission standards), achieving a unification of economic benefits and social responsibility.
Typical Application Scenarios for Vacuum Drying Technology
With its low-temperature, oxygen-free, efficient, and clean characteristics, the DLZG Series Single Cone Screw Belt Vacuum Dryer has become the preferred equipment in the following fields:
• Biopharmaceuticals: Final drying of sterile APIs, antibiotics, proteins, enzymes, and vaccines.
• Fine Chemicals: Drying of high-purity intermediates, pesticide technicals, expensive catalysts, and specialty resins.
• Food and Health Products: Drying of natural plant extracts, flavors and fragrances, probiotic powders, and high-purity collagen and other heat-sensitive nutritional ingredients.
