Beet pulp, also known as beet waste silk or waste pulp, is the residue after beet roots and tubers are soaked and squeezed to extract sugar liquid. Therefore, there are a lot of water-insoluble substances in the residue, especially crude fiber is completely retained. Beet pulp contains a lot of water and needs to be dried before it can be stored for a long time or reused.
Beet pulp drying is usually carried out by mechanical drying in the form of drum drying. The water content of the dried beet pulp is about 12%, which is convenient for long-term storage or resource recycling. Its process flow: After the beet pulp is partially dehydrated by a spiral dehydrator, it is transported to the beet pulp dryer by a screw conveyor. Under the turning of the uniformly distributed copying plates in the cylinder, it is fully in contact with the hot air to achieve the purpose of heat and mass transfer.
Uses of dried beet pulp:
Beet pulp can be stored and transported by silage, drying and making into pellets, which not only improves palatability but also facilitates long-term storage. Beet pulp pellets can be combined with beet waste honey during the manufacturing process to further improve palatability and increase energy content.
In addition to being used as feed, beet pulp can also be used to prepare oxalic acid, extract cellulose and pectin, and even develop into health products. Research in the United States has also found that beet pulp can be used as a cheap aquaculture bait.
In summary, beet pulp, as a by-product, has high nutritional value and broad application prospects. The application of beet pulp dryer improves the utilization efficiency of beet pulp. If you are interested in the equipment, please contact us.
