Meet the Glatt PHOS4green experts at the POWTECH 2019 Hall 3 / 3-249

/in /by

Glatt Ingenieurtechnik will be presenting a market-ready process at POWTECH that fulfils the legal obligation of German waste disposal companies to recover phosphorus. In the first step of the two-stage “PHOS4green” process, a suspension is produced from the phosphate-containing ash. The suspension is then spray granulated in the fluidised bed. This results in fertiliser granulates that are available to plants and soil, which can be discharged, filled and delivered directly.

Formulation For Success – Fluid Bed Systemes as Key for the Production of Speciality Fertilizers

/in , /by

From improving durability and flowability through dust reduction to a pronounced depot effect or a targeted nutrient supply via better active ingredient distribution, fluidised bed technology can deliver many benefits. The shape and size of the fertilizer granules can be determined within a defined range. The quantity of fertilizer components delivered to the soil can be adapted optimally, and significantly higher product qualities can be achieved. Solubility and protection against external influences can also be markedly improved.

Hot one-pot process – high temperature fluidized bed for simultaneous particle formulation and functionalization

Hot one-pot process – high temperature fluidized bed for simultaneous particle formulation and functionalization. The requirements for the high-performance materials of the future pose new challenges for product developers: Innovative applications require increasingly complex materials, but their desired properties can so far only be achieved in cost-intensive multi-step processes. With high-temperature fluid bed systems, plant manufacturer Glatt overcomes previously applicable temperature limits. (German article)

Dried to the point – Thermal processes in the fluid bed

/in /by

Fluid bed technologies are ideally suited for carrying out heat and mass transfer processes, which are in demand during drying. Particles can be simultaneously refined and functionalized economically in parallel with drying by means of spray granulation, spray coating or spray agglomeration. The selection of the right drying process is challenging: it depends on the prevailing conditions in each case and requires a holistic approach. (article in German language)

Twelve days installation time – Compact system for continuous spray agglomeration of fine powders

/in /by

Powder agglomeration compactly solved: Protein shakes, capsule coffee and sugar substitutes must be able to be precisely dosed and dissolve quickly; they must neither lump nor segregate. By means of continuous spray agglomeration in the fluid bed, these properties can be precisely adjusted. The new GF ModFlex compact system from plant manufacturer Glatt Ingenieurtechnik makes this economically feasible even for medium-sized productions. (article in German language)

From Hot Gas Stream to Matt Finish by Glatt Powder Synthesis

/in , /by

Whether it’s rapid prototyping, customisation or personalisation, paint manufacturers can usually only dream of what has long been a reality in other industries. Their ideas are thwarted by minimum purchase quantities, a lack of know-how, expensive machinery or the unavailability of yet-to-be-developed powder types. Thanks to a novel method of spray calcination, test-ready additives for rapid market entry can be ready in just a few weeks.

PHOS4green presented at the State Association of the Recycling Industry Saxony e. V. in Leipzig
