KDS Micronex - Grinder-Dryer System
The KDS Micronex is an innovative grinder-dryer system, designed to process various raw materials and waste into fine, dry powders. This patented system combines grinding and drying in a single unit, offering a more energy-efficient alternative to traditional methods. Utilizing centrifugal force in a chamber with spinning chains or blades, it effectively pulverizes materials while simultaneously reducing moisture content without the need for external heat sources. The KDS Micronex can handle high-moisture organic materials, reducing their moisture content from up to 60% to 5%. Additionally, the system is capable of processing waste materials to eliminate pathogens and odors, making it suitable for environmentally focused markets like ethanol production and fertilizer manufacturing. Its versatility, reliability, and cost efficiency, in terms of operational and energy costs, make the KDS Micronex a valuable asset for companies seeking sustainable and scalable waste processing solutions.
The KDS Micronex™ is a patented grinder-dryer all-in-one system which efficiently and economically processes a wide variety of raw materials and wastes into fine, dry powders which can be used for the manufacturing of ethanol, other “green fuel”, pathogen-free fertilizers and many other types of value-added products.
- converts moist biomass and other materials to uniform dry powders in a single process step without external heat
- reduces and or eliminates disposal costs for your process wastes
- decreases overall grinding and drying cost
- produces uniform small particle size material suitable for use in numerous value-added products
- reduces waste product odors by drying efficiently
- produces nearly 100% pathogen-free, dry powders
- improves the shelf life of byproducts
- reduces or eliminates the need for air emissions controls on your biomass drying equipment
Models of the KDS Micronex vary in size and production rates. The KDS Micronex-3 is a small test machine used for a very small production rate. Information for this unit is available upon request.
The KDS Micronex is more than a materials reduction machine; it is a self-contained environmental solution provider and profit center. Its versatility, efficiency, and durability make it an ideal investment for a broad range of applications in a variety of environmentally oriented markets.
No heat is required, yet the KDS Micronex machine can dry organic substances from up to 60% moisture content down to 5% moisture depending on the material being processed.
