Agitated Thin Film Dryer (ATFD)
The Agitated Thin Film Dryer (ATFD) is an advanced drying system designed to recover valuable solids and minimize liquid waste by evaporating the last traces of moisture from concentrated solutions, slurries, and pastes. It operates under vacuum or atmospheric conditions, forming a thin film of the feed material on a heated surface, which is continuously agitated for efficient heat transfer and rapid drying.
At A.J. Engineering and System, we design and manufacture high-performance ATFD units for various industrial applications, ensuring trouble-free operation, minimal maintenance, and superior product quality. Our ATFD systems are engineered to handle highly viscous, heat-sensitive, and crystallizing materials with ease.
