The discussion centers on the removal of moisture from polyester staples using a vacuum chamber. Participants are exploring the design of a vessel capable of achieving a specific moisture reduction target within a defined timeframe and temperature limit.
There is no consensus yet on the specific design or methodology for the vacuum chamber, and multiple viewpoints regarding the approach to moisture removal are present.
The discussion does not specify the assumptions regarding the efficiency of the vacuum chamber or the characteristics of the polyester staples that may affect moisture removal.
What kind of concepts were you thinking of?ravindrar said:Summary:: Moisture removal from Polyester staples.
I want to remove 6% moisture in one hour from 500 kg of polyester staples, which contains 12% moisture using vacuum chamber at maximum temperature of 40´´°¨ C. Can anybody help to design vessel. I can calculate pump capacity.
