Vulcan® Drying Systems Completes New 24 ton per 24 hr TDU
Vulcan® Drying Systems has recently completed a custom-built Indirect Thermal Desorption Unit.
Capable of drying 24 tons of material in 24 hours, the system was designed, engineered and manufactured at the VDS plant in Moberly, Missouri.
The unit will be used for drill cutting and tank bottom sludge remediation by the client.
The portable unit is mounted on three flatbed trailers for easy mobility. The first trailer has the live bottom feeder, an indirect fired drum that has a 3′ high by 15′ long heat zone and the discharge screw conveyor.
Trailer 2 houses the oil condensers and storage for the augers when the unit is transported.
Trailer 3 contains the oil-water separator and the thermal oxidizer as well as space for mounting the hopper for transportation.
