Bühler’s fluid bed is applied in the second stage of the soybean hot dehulling process to pop soybean hulls and reduce the moisture of soybeans for efficient oil extraction.
The fluid bed is fitted with full thermal insulation to reduce heat loss and thus operating costs.
During soybean hull popping, the fluid bed's built-in conveying system simultaneously controls kernel heat exposure for best high-protein results and transfers the processed product to the discharge airlock.
The straightforward design of the fluid bed supports easy start-up, uncomplicated operation and high performance with consistently high product quality.
The gear motor accurately drives the conveying system, maintaining the desired product layer height while controlling the retention time to provide the right heat exposure for optimal popping.
Large service doors allow convenient access to all major components for easy maintenance and fast cleaning.
The rugged steel frame, stainless steel aspiration hoods, stainless steel directional sieves, air inlet channel, and product chamber are all designed for longer service lives and contribute to lowest operational costs.
