  Abstract

The effects of inlet gas velocity (0.26-0.31 m/s), inlet gas temperature (315-353 K) and the mass ratio (0.1-0.4) of fine polymer (crosslinked poly methyl methacrylate beads) to inert medium particles on the drying rate of fine polymer in a 0.15 m-ID× 1.0 m-high inert medium fluidized bed dryer have been investigated. Crosslinked PMMA beads of 20 μm (group C) were used as fine polymer, and glass beads of 590 μm (group B) were used as the inert medium. The drying rate increases with increasing inlet gas temperature and velocity. However, the drying rate decreases slightly as the mass ratio of fine polymer to inert medium particles increases. The particle size distribution of dried fine polymers was mono distribution.
