20080295355 | METHOD OF INCREASING THE EFFICIENCY OF A DRIER, PARTICULARLY A STREAM DRIER - A method of increasing the efficiency of a drier, particularly a stream drier for loose and flammable materials, particularly cut tobacco, working with a gaseous drying agent under a working pressure from 5 kpa to 10 MPa, measured as an absolute pressure, preferably the drying agent being superheated steam. A pressurized process gas, preferably waste steam, particularly coming from the interior of the drier, is passed through a dosing-separating valve, preferably a rotary vane feeder ( | 12-04-2008 |
20100139116 | SYSTEMS FOR PREVENTION OF HAP EMISSIONS AND FOR EFFICIENT DRYING/DEHYDRATION PROCESSES - This invention discloses systems, apparatuses and methods for drying or dehydrating high moisture content feedstock to dry or low moisture products. The equipment systems comprise a gas turbine generator unit (preferred heat source), a dryer vessel and a processing unit, wherein the connection between the gas turbine and the dryer vessel directs substantially all the gas turbine exhaust into the dryer vessel and substantially precludes the introduction of air into the dryer vessel and wherein the processing unit forms the dried material from the dryer vessel into granules, pellets, flakes or other desired form for the final product. The systems, apparatuses and methods of this invention also provide for prevention of release of HAP, including VOC, emissions from manufacturing facilities in conjunction with or independent of the above treatment of high water content feedstock. | 06-10-2010 |
20120324757 | METHOD FOR DRYING A SUBSTRATE - A method for drying workpieces includes immersing the workpieces in a liquid bath, raising the workpieces with a first holder until a central opening of the workpieces is visible above liquid surface, then using a dry second holder rod inserted through said central opening to continue raising process. Due to this, a drying portion of the workpiece is not held by a wet holding mechanism. | 12-27-2012 |
20130000144 | APPARATUS FOR TREATING SUBSTRATE AND METHOD FOR DISCHARGING SUPERCRITICAL FLUID - Provided are an apparatus for treating a substrate and a method for discharge a supercritical fluid, and more particularly, an apparatus for treating a substrate using a supercritical fluid and a method for discharging the supercritical fluid using the same. The apparatus for treating the substrate includes a container for providing a supercritical fluid, a vent line through which the supercritical fluid is discharged from the container, and a freezing prevention unit disposed in the vent line to prevent the supercritical fluid from being frozen. | 01-03-2013 |
20130025155 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TREATING SUBSTRATE - Provided are an apparatus and method for treating a substrate. Specifically, provided are an apparatus and method for treating a substrate through a supercritical process. The apparatus includes: a housing providing a space for performing a process; a support member disposed in the housing to support a substrate; a supply port configured to supply a process fluid to the housing; a shield member disposed between the supply port and the support member to prevent the process fluid from being directly injected to the substrate; and an exhaust port configured to discharge the process fluid from the housing. | 01-31-2013 |

20090199428 | Method and apparatus for drying wood - The invention relates to a method and apparatus for drying wood by means of vapor. In the method according to the invention the vapor essentially is generated from the wood's own liquid by means of electric energy by conducting the electric energy by means of electrodes directly to the wood to be dried so that the vapor generated first in the center of the wood pushes out the liquids in the wood via the capillaries of the wood. The apparatus according to the invention includes a current source and electrodes connected thereto built to be brought into contact with the wood to be dried in order to conduct electricity to the wood. | 08-13-2009 |
20110099838 | FLUID HEATER, MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF, SUBSTRATE PROCESSING APPARATUS INCLUDING FLUID HEATER, AND SUBSTRATE PROCESSING METHOD - A fluid heater | 05-05-2011 |
20120317833 | METHOD FOR REMOVING SULFUR COMPOUNDS IN CASTABLE - A situation where sulfur compounds originating from a castable are mixed into synthesis gas produced by way of a reforming reaction and the mixed sulfur compounds are separated and collected with carbon dioxide and further fed into a reformer to thereby degrade the reforming catalyst of the reformer by sulfur poisoning is avoided. Purge gas that is steam or steam-containing gas is made to flow into the piping to be used for a synthesis gas production apparatus and dried out to remove the sulfur compounds contained in the castable prior to the start-up of operation of the synthesis gas production apparatus, in order to prevent the sulfur compounds from being released by hot synthesis gas. | 12-20-2012 |
