Bentonite clay, with its extraordinary properties, is one of the most important clay minerals in modern industry. The clay has become a mainstay not only in the products industries and consumers rely on, but the processes as well, lending its diverse qualities to each and …
This week’s image highlights a counter-current rotary dryer in 3D. In counter-current dryers, material flows in the opposite direction as the drying air. Here, the wettest material comes in contact with the coolest drying air. The counter current design provides increased thermal efficiency for materials …
In the complex production required to transform spodumene concentrate into lithium compounds such as lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide, calcination plays a key role in not one, but two parts of the process, making it an essential technique in efforts to exploit this increasingly important …
Organic combustion is the thermal treatment of organic wastes with the intent of reducing mass and volume. This process is frequently seen in waste treatment plants in order to reduce the volume of organic wastes for deposit into landfill. Organic combustion leaves behind an ash …
Rotary dryers have a long history in many industries, but perhaps none more than in the fertilizer industry, where they are an essential component in processing minerals for fertilizers at mine sites, and for producing many of the fertilizer products on the market today. Rotary …
The rotary kiln is a diverse thermal processing device capable of carrying out a variety of process objectives, from burning off volatile components to activating carbon, and more. As a substantial investment, those looking to purchase a rotary kiln must make every effort to avoid …
The lithium-ion battery market has seen explosive growth in recent years, largely in response to the growing electric vehicle market, coupled with the increasing use of consumer electronics and a desire to advance energy storage technology for renewable energy applications. A Grand View Research report …
