● The sand is treated in the batches of 500 kilograms and the FBC is designed keeping in mind the bubbling effect and the
target of 500 kg/hour of sand reclamation.

● The heat is supplied using the bed itself as well as with the coils that wrap around the body of the equipment. It reaches
the temperatures of 800 °C which is the required temperature to destroy the bentonite be it calcium bentonite or sodium
bentonite. Both of which are widely used in green sand for bounding purposes.

● Inlet and outlet pipe diameter taken as a standard available pipe diameter.

● Insulation thickness and type (yet to be determined)

Sand needs to be heated at 800 degree Celsius to destroy the bentonite coating present

 Sand will be in continuous motion passing through the horizontal cylinder which will be heated using induction coils
 Using appropriate RPM, flow of sand is determined in such a way that the target of 500kg/hr of sand reclamation is

achieved. The sand will be heated to 800 degrees by the time it travels through the entire distance inside the cylinder.

 Thus binders will be burnt and at the end of the reclaimer there will be an air classifier which will separate out these fines
from the sand.

 Safeguarding the copper coils: The induction coils are mostly made of copper windings with iron core inside them. The
iron core present inside can be hollow and thus it can serve as tubes to water-cool the system through a pump. Moreover,
the material of the coil is such that it can withstand temperatures of 800 degrees and can be used for a long period of time

Implementation of the induction coil

The idea is to implement the coils in such a manner that they are all connected to a single ring made of graphite or copper
lined with graphite.

The ring is just like slip rings of a motor which is attached to the brushes for maintaining electrical contact.

More than any other form of dryer, direct heated rotary dryers are employed in drying processing plants.
This is understandable of the wide range of materials which can be dried in them and if they are correctly designed and
operated high thermal efficiencies are obtained.

This study makes different assumptions about how moisture moves inside a drying specimen, including liquid diffusion,
capillary flow, and surface-activated diffusion. The two primary mechanisms involved in drying are mass- and heat-transfer.
The water must be heated in order for it to be vaporised, and it is anticipated that the resulting vapour will be taken away
by an air stream or some other method.

Calculating the contact area between showering particles and the air flow allows one to examine the volumetric heat-
transfer coefficient and the pressure drop in a rotary drier. By conducting experiments or making the assumption that the
exposed surface of the showering particles is equal to the theoretical cross-sectional area of the material shownered by the
lifters, the effective number of the showering particles per unit length can be determined.

The arrangement and shape of the lifters was found to be connected to the capacity of a rotary dryer. The number and
arrangement of the lifters are decided by the physical properties of the feedstock, while the percentage of hold-up of the
material during showering is utilised to estimate the depth of the lifters.

by the product's feed rate. The amount of material kept in the dryer between two obstructions is calculated as a function of
the obstructions' geometric configuration, shell diameter, and by ignoring any impact from the dryer's slope.

The use of specific theoretical principles and experimental criteria, along with familiarity with the product to be
manufactured, determine the majority of the design work for a direct heated rotary dryer.

The nature of the material (physical and chemical qualities) and size of the feedstock affect how well any type of dryer
works, therefore before the design process can begin, it is important to understand the safe range of temperature for the
drying medium.

For the time being, it is assumed that the material can be heated by direct heating in parallel flow (the material's chemical
and structural integrity are maintained in high temperature conditions). Because water boils at 750°C, we deduced from
pilot tests that the material can be heated to that temperature. The air temperature will be 23°C at the air inlet and 750°C
at the air outlet (must be at least 20°C higher from the material due to saturation).
.

Heat loss from the dryer's exhaust gases

At this point, we encountered a problem that needed to be solved because, in order to calculate heat loss from exhaust
gases, we need to know exactly how many gases are leaving the dryer. However, we are unable to do so at this time
because this variable depends on both heat loss from exhaust gases and heat loss from moisture in exhaust gases. We
must use a different approach than the current linear one that we are employing to find an alternative root in order to
tackle this challenge. As of right now, we are aware that there are five unknown dependent factors and two unknown
independent variables, which are listed below.:
