Intensification of Drying Process During Activated Carbon Regenerationc
Heat-mass exchange processes during regenerated activated carbon drying was studied to determine the minimum height of heat-mass exchange zone and termination time of hot heating agent supply based on criterion equations and heat balance calculations. The heating agent temperature changes with time and the adsorbent bed height, as well as the time of moisture content change and drying rate were studied experimentally. Minimum height of a wet material layer ensuring rational use of the heating agent was determined.
