Mining | A convection dryer of the forced-draft type. The heat source is a coal-fired furnace. It consists essentially of a declined reciprocating screen over which the coal travels. Two balanced tandem decks are used. They are suspended from the supporting structure by inclined flexible hangers and actuated in opposition through flexible pitmans from a common eccentric shaft. The removal of moisture is accomplished by passing hot furnace gases, tempered with cold air, downward through the bed of coal as it travels along the screen. An induced-draft fan at the exhaust end provides the motive force for the gases. See also:thermal drying. (references) |
