Drying Conditions and Considerations for LiCl
Drying lithium chloride comes with a few challenges, mainly due to its high solubility in water and its tendency to form crusts during the process. These factors make it harder for moisture to be removed through conventional drying methods. Once anhydrous lithium chloride is separated by centrifuge, a screw feeder delivers the material in a controlled and continuous flow into a rotary tray dryer designed for efficient thermal processing. As the material moves through the trays, heat and mass transfer occur simultaneously, allowing the product to dry gradually and evenly.
Once the target moisture level is reached, the dried material is cooled to packaging temperature, typically around 40–60°C, within the same unit. It is then discharged through a bottom outlet and transferred to the packaging section. Exhaust air containing residual moisture is vented through the top of the dryer and passes through a dust removal system before being released.
