Multi-Functional CDB Systems

You've always counted on the Pfaudler vacuum dryer system for your corrosive solids and ultra-pure drying needs. Now, depending on your processing requirements, a Pfaudler Multi-Functional Conical Dryer Blender (CDB) can be employed for:

  • Blending
  • Liquid Evaporation
  • Solids Vacuum Drying
  • Heterogeneous Reactions
  • Precipitations/Crystallizations
  • Filtrations

The Pfaudler Multi-Functional CDB is just what its name suggests. The unique design of the Multi-Functional CDB allows a customer to replace various pieces of equipment with just one vessel. If you could replace your reactor, centrifuge/filter and drying equipment with a single vessel, what would prevent you from doing it? The Pfaudler Conical Dryer Blender has been a solids drying standard for over 50 years. Now versatility is added to that dependability. Your entire downstream operation can now be performed in a single vessel. Product may now be processed without any personnel handling whatsoever. The Multi-Functional CDB is simply an improvement of Pfaudler's standard unit. Several key features are added to the standard design to increase its functionality depending on customer's requirements. CDB materials of construction include: the stainless steels, high alloys and glasslined carbon or stainless steel.
