Conical Dryer Blenders (CDB)
Our Conical Dryer Blender (CDB) delivers the gentle, effective vacuum drying and blending required for pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. They are specifically designed to ensure optimized heat transfer, clean-ability and the safe containment of corrosive processes.
CDB Construction
For reliable operation and safe process containment, our CDB’s are designed and fabricated per all major worldwide pressure vessel codes.

Materials of Construction
Depending on their intended application, our CDB’s are constructed of stainless steel or glass-lined steel. For corrosive applications, Glasteel® provides safe containment of hazardous chemicals and has an inherent non-stick surface to prevent building and allow for proper cleaning in validated pharmaceutical applications. For non corrosive pharmaceutical applications, we provide stainless steel CDB’s with polished product contact services.
Accessories - Filtration
A corrosion resistant filter plate assembly enables the washing and filtering of contents and effective solids/liquid separation. This eliminates the need for a centrifuge and reduces the inherent risks of transfering hazardous chemicals.
Accessories - Contained transfers
We provide pressure and vacuum transfer systems, as well as drum charging systems to safely load and unload potent materials.
Accessories - Insulation and sheating
CDB’s are insulated for heat conservation and personnel protection. They are also covered with seal-welded stainless steel sheathing to allow for wash down and a clean drying environment.
Testing
Our fully-equipped Process Test Facility in Rochester, NY, USA provides drying testing services to demonstrate the capabilities of the CDB for your process. With multi-stage vacuum systems and multiple hot oil, steam and pressurized hot water systems it offers a wide test operating matrix, helping to define the optimum operating conditions.
