KENKI DRYER’s IoT / Sludge dryer, Slurry dryer, Waste dryer

KENKI DRYER which can dry sticky and adhesive materials that no other dryer can is an innovative drying apparatus having unique technologies with 2 patents in Japan, 9 patens in 7 abroad countries, 11 patents in total.  Please consider about KENKI DRYER as dryer for organic waste with high moisture content, sludge dryer, slurry dryer, dryer for digestive fluid from the methane fermentation and waste recycling dryer.
It has 11 patents in 8 countries which are Japan, Taiwan, the Unites States, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Swiss and Canada.
Since amount of saturated steam used as heat source of KENKI DRYER is small, there is no need for installing new boilers, and decarbonization and fuel cost reduction is possible by using redundant steam from the plants.

■ Current status of sites where the machines were installed.

 

At the sites where the machines are installed, not a few parts rely on experiences and intuitions of skilled workers.
Also, it is difficult to increase number of worker at factories because of their 3D (dirty, dangerous and demeaning) working environment and also an aging population with declining birthrate.
In most of the cases, not a dedicated staff handle the operation of the machine but a staff does it together with other tasks in parallel. Moreover, these tasks are often done at factory’s offices which are not at the site where the machines were installed.

 

■ Remote control with IoT of KENKI DRYER

 

The remote control with IoT of KENKI DRYER is touch panel type and makes operation handling easy. 
By the remote control with IoT of KENKI DRYER, operation of KENKI DRYER can be handled in factory office etc.
 by doing other tasks without going to the local site.
With easy operation of the remote control with IoT of KENKI DRYER, no additional labor cost happens since there is no need to hire skilled workers.
Since work at local sites become less and there is no direct contact with other staff, infectious disease can be prevented.
Also, by having AI read the accumulated data of IoT remote control, AI control becomes more accurate.

With technologies based on 11 patents in 8 countries, KENKI DRYER can dry sticky and adhesive materials that no other dryers can deal with. It can dry any materials easily with simple operation and low cost.
While the main purposes of drying are countermeasures for rising price of industrial waste disposal cost, reduction of amount and cost of industrial waste disposal, and reduction of CO2, they can be achieved efficiently and with no operator by IoT and AI technologies . A company can increase its profit together with its environmental contribution as the results.

Alignment of AI, IoT and PLC is very important.

Work environment with KENKI DRYER which uses low temperature drying is very good in safety and hygiene prospective.

■ Product characteristics


KENKI DRYER has three main characteristics. They are 1) Any materials can be dried as expected including sticky, adhesive and viscous materials and raw material slurry that no other company can deal with, 2) dried material can by recycled or utilized as raw materials because of its low-temperature drying method, and 3) there is no need to assign operator since its continuous operating system makes 24 hours unattended operation possible.

Products

 

■ Drying process

 

The unique and original drying mechanism of KENKI DRYER is also International Patented Technology. Because 4 drying mechanisms which are crashing drying, agitation drying, circulation drying and indirect drying work simultaneously and add heat to material being dried repeatedly and continuously, inner part of the material is dried thoroughly and quality of discharged material after drying is stable. This series of drying mechanisms prevents agglomeration which causes insufficient drying from feeding process of the material into the dryer until discharging process after drying completed. Various ingenuities to conduct heat surely into inner part of the materials are exercised and stable heating and drying are proceeded continuously.

Methods

 

■ Self-cleaning screw / Steam Heated Twin Screw Technology
( SHTS technology )

 

One of the International Patented Technology that KENKI DRYER has is a self-cleaning structure called Steam Heated Twin Screw technology (SHTS technology). No matter how materials are sticky, adhesive and viscous is, they can be dried without clogging inside of the dryer because of this unique structure that no other products has.
For example, even materials stuck to the blades of one screw, blades of the other screw in the dryer’s body forcibly peels the materials off as they rotate. Since the blades rotate by peeling the material off each other, any sticky, adhesive and viscous material does not adhere to the blade, and the blades continue rotating, peeling, agitating and heating material without stopping while they carries material further. Also, since surface of blades are always renewed and kept clean, heat near the blades is not blocked and it is conducted directly into the materials.

■ Heat source, Saturated steam

 

Even KENKI DRYER uses only saturated steam as its heat source, it is outstanding in safety and hygiene point of view with its unique drying mechanism based on combined use of conductive heat transfer method and heated air method. Since steam is a stable heat source, quality of discharged material after drying is also stable and equable. Maximum allowed steam pressure is 0.7Mpa and adjustment of steam pressure, adjustment of drying temperature in other words, can be easily done. Saturated steam is commonly used in many factories so that it can be said as a familiar and handy heat source. In comparison with drying methods using burner or hot blasts, saturated steam method is an indirect drying applying heat exchange via pipes that steam is passing through, therefore, it hardly burns the materials and is outstanding in safety and hygiene point of view.

Heat source, Steam

 

Please consider KENKI DRYER for drying of sticky materials, adhesive materials and materials in liquid state that no other dryer can deal with.
Initial, running and maintenance costs are low because of its simple structure based on internationally patented technology.
For sludge drying, costs of our dryers are estimated to be retrieved within 2, 3 years by reducing industrial waste disposal cost.
For raw material slurry drying, laborious works of manual operation will be decreased significantly by replacing box shaped compartment tray dryer with our dryer
In case of organic wastes drying, the waste can be recycled as fuel, fertilizer, soil conditioner and feedstuff after being dried.
