Powder Processing & Technology, LLC Adds Spray Dryer to Innovative Materials Center
Dryer Addition Provides Improved Capability for Materials Technology Companies Looking Toward PPT to Overcome Hurdles to Commercialization
PPT has added a 9’6” diameter Anhydro spray dryer to the Innovative Materials Center (IMC), providing a substantial upgrade in the variety of materials and conditions that PPT can pursue in meeting clients’ requirements for a spray dried powder. PPT’s IMC is explicitly designed to meet the demands from clients who have developed new materials or modified existing materials and need to speed them to market. Bridging the gap between laboratory development and commercial success is a huge obstacle for materials technology companies. More and more these firms have reached out to PPT to assist them in making the jump. The IMC can process quantities from laboratory scale to pilot scale (a few Kgs ~ 2,000 Kg) before moving to mass production in the client’s own facility or in the PPT production facilities.
PPT’s success is built on an experienced and capable staff surrounded by an existing investment in pilot scale processing assets that translate into successful development. PPT excels in understanding the needs of clients and converting a development plan into a successful product launch. Professional support is available from engineers with advanced degrees in materials engineering and over 150 years combined experience.
The types of ceramics powder development processing equipment available in the IMC include:
Spray Dryers Rotary Calciners
Sintering Furnaces Grinding Mills
Mixing Equipment Classification Equipment
Pelletizers Mix/Blend Tanks
All are supported with a fully equipped analytical laboratory.
Among the industries/markets served by PPT are:
Energy Storage Materials Fuel Cell (SOFC) Materials
Battery Materials Super capacitor Materials
Electronic Materials Catalyst Materials
Advanced Ceramic Materials Abrasive Materials
Refractory Materials Fire/flame Retardant Materials
Oxide Coating Materials Inorganic Compounds
Agricultural Materials Minerals
