Description
The Vulcan® Drying Systems Frac Sand Drying System is custom-designed and manufactured to suit a customer's individual project needs. These drying systems consist of a correctly sized drum and a burner mounted in a concurrent configuration.

Process
Frac sand is fed into the rotary dryer. After passing through the dryer, the dried product is discharged to a transfer conveyor for further sorting and separation. The vapor from the process is pulled through a cyclone that is specifically designed to deal with the fine frac sand dust, as well as a baghouse which removes fine particulates from the vapor stream.
