AMOF-FJELL THERMAL DISC DRYER

Driers delivered to Island for fish meal production

Standard range of AMOF Fjell Rotating Disc Dryers

The AMOF-Fjell Thermal Disc Dryer is an indirectly heated dryer for:

  • Sludge in Waste Water Treatment Plants
  • Fishmeal in both land based and ship installed plants
  • Ingredients in the food industry
  • Spent grains in distilleries and breweries
  • Animal and poultry by products
  • Industrial bio-sludge and mineral sludge
The dryer has a unique endurable rotor design without traditional welded stays exposed to tear, wear, fatigue and corrosion. Dryers can be supplied in all practical sizes, in all common materials of construction (carbon-, stainless-, and duplex steels), and approved and inspected according to the leading international design codes and standards (PED, ASME, JIS, GOST, DNV, Lloyds, Bureau Veritas etc.)

Legacy

In 2012, the engineering department of Fjell Industries was moved to a new company called Fjell Technology. In 2014 Fjell Technology was merged with a company named AMOF, and our new name then became AMOF Fjell Process Technology. Our employees have long experience in calculating, producing and commissioning drier systems, and some of our senior personnel have been working with this since the Stord Bartz, and Atlas Stord days. The Drier has been developed and improved over the recent years, and AMOF Fjell has an ongoing production of these driers.

Design Features   

The AMOF-Fjell Thermal Disc Dryer is designed for heating by steam (max.10 bar) or hot water. The largest heating surface is the rotor, but additional heating surface is available as an option on the stator. The product to be dryed is slowly, but vigorously, transported from inlet- to outlet end by a paddle system mounted on the disc periphery. Product discharge is normally done continuously by a speed controlled extraction screw conveyor. The discs are mounted on a heavy central shaft with a highly efficient condensate removal system integrated. Scraper bars ensure agitation between the discs, which is necessary for efficient evaporation. The moisture evaporated from the product is collected in a high top vapour dome, and continuously removed.
