Abstract
Zeolites have potential to increase efficiency of mediumtemperature drying in the food industry. This work concerns the comparison between conventional dryers and dryers using air dehumidified by zeolite. Steady-state mass and energy balances have been used and the work concerns drying temperatures ranging from 52 to 70C. Process integration based on pinch analysis has been applied and nine different heat exchanger networks for energy recovery are compared. Results indicated that dryers using air dehumidifier by zeolites are 10–18% more efficient than conventional dryers. Keywords Adsorption; Energy efficiency; Process integration; Zeolite drying
