Product Overview
The Gausin Agitated Thin Film Dryer (ATFD) is a vertical, jacketed cylinder fitted with a rotor carrying hinged or fixed blades. The rotor spreads incoming feed into a thin, highly turbulent film over the heated wall, achieving fast evaporation even for difficult products.
Because the film is constantly wiped and renewed, the ATFD handles viscous, fouling, foaming and heat-sensitive feeds that would scale or burn in conventional dryers. Operation under vacuum lowers the boiling point and protects product quality.
ATFDs are a key element of Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) plants, converting evaporator concentrate into a dry, handleable powder or flakes. Gausin supplies them in SS 304 / 316L with optional crystallizing and condensing systems.
Wiped Thin Film
Rotor blades spread and renew a thin film for fast, fouling-free drying.
Vacuum Operation
Reduced boiling point protects heat-sensitive and high-value products.
ZLD / Effluent
Dries evaporator concentrate to powder for zero liquid discharge.
Handles Viscous Feeds
Processes pastes, slurries, foaming and crystallizing liquids.
Solvent / Condensate
Integrated condenser recovers solvent or distillate.
PLC/SCADA Control
Automated vacuum, temperature and rotor-speed control.
