Complete Guide
to YC-501 Inert Loop Mini Spray Dryer
YC-501 Inert Loop Mini Spray Dryer can be used for both aqueous solution and organic solvent.
YC-501 Inert Loop Mini Spray Dryer is suitable for most organic solvents, such as methanol, ethanol, acetone, acetonitrile and more.
YC-501 Inert Loop Mini Spray Dryer adopts a modular structure, which is divided into upper and lower parts, the upper part is the main machine of the spray dryer, the lower part is the nitrogen circulation system, and the refrigerator is built into the nitrogen circulation system.
This is the reason why we do it this way.
The advantage is that when it’s used for spray drying of aqueous solution, the nitrogen circulation system doesn’t need to be connected. Nitrogen or air can be used as hot air, which can save cost, and there is no need to purchase additional nitrogen sources.
When used for organic solvent, connect the spray drying main machine to the nitrogen circulation system, and use nitrogen as the source of hot air to ensure the safety of organic solvent spray drying.
The working principle of YC-501 Inert Loop Mini Spray Dryer is as follows when it’s used for organic solvents.
First, the liquid material enters through the feed tube and is atomized into small droplets at the spray head. The small droplets meet the hot air or nitrogen, instantly dried into powder. Under the action of the cyclone separator, the powder is collected in the collection tank. the exhaust gas is discharged through the exhaust tube. Exhaust gas has three components, they are organic vapor, nitrogen and dust particles. First the dust particles will be collected by the bag filter, organic vapors will be condensed, then the solvent is collected at the recovery tank, and finally the clean nitrogen enters the next circulation system.
The YC-501 Inert Loop Mini Spray Dryer is designed with a solvent discharge outlet. When the solvent in the recovery tank is full, we can directly discharge it through the discharge outlet, avoiding the need to stop the machine after the recovery tank is full.
The oxygen content in the system will set a safe value. When the oxygen content in the system is higher than the safe value, the equipment can’t be turned on or automatically shut down to ensure the safety of the entire experiment.
The capacity of YC-501 Inert Loop Mini Spray Dryer is 500ml/h, and it can work continuously. The minimum capacity is 10-20ml (related to factors such as the solid content of the material).
