The
Process
Refined sugar is fed via belt conveyers to sugar bins or hoppers.
At this point the sugar is at about 48°°C with moisture content
approximately 0.035% of its weight. This sugar, however, has to be
cooled to about 38°*C to 40°*C before it can be packaged.
If cooled by the conventional method, the cooling process takes about
12-36 hours during which condensation takes pace on the bin ceiling.
This results in lumping of the top layer and deterioration in quality.
Bry-Air Solution….
Condensation can be avoided if cool dehumidified air's blown into
the bins at condition 26 + 1°°C and 30 + 2% RH. This not
only checks condensation but also reduces the cooling time to 6
hours, resulting in considerable saving of operating time, man hours
and cost.
Bry-Air Desiccant Dehumidifiers has been able to solve many ' moisture'
problems during storage and packaging of sugar. The Bry-Air Dehumidifiers
removes moisture from the air, through a process of continuous physical
adsorption, thus preventing condensation.
Bry-Air Desiccant Dehumidifiers can effectively maintain the most
stringent humidity conditions required for sugar storage and packaging
since they are capable of maintaining RH as low as 1% or even lower
at a constant level, regardless of ambient conditions.
Also, the dry air from the dehumidifier is pre-cooled before being
blown into the storage bin, which cuts down the cooling time.
Bry-Air has a large range of standard as well as engineered Dehumidifiers
which are packaged to ensure dry packaging of sugar whether in sachets
or in cubes.
