Simulation of a Fluidized Bed Dryer for the Drying of Sago Waste

Abstract: The large amount of sago waste produced by sago processing industries can cause serious environmental problems. When dried, these residues usually have a high starch content (around 58%) and have many potential applications. In this study, the drying of sago waste using a fluidized bed dryer (FBD), which offers more advantages than other drying methods, is analyzed via computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling. A two-dimensional (2D) FBD model is also developed and a mesh independency test is conducted immed… Show more

“…The main component of sago pulp is starch which varies between 30 and 73% of the dry weight (Adeni, 2013;Lai et al, 2013;Muhsafaat 2015). This sago pulp waste is not yet well utilized and could cause environmental issues if it is simply discarded (Tiro et al, 2018;Rosli, 2018;Amos 2010). In addition to its abundance as a secondary product of the sago flour processing industry, sago pulp is also a natural organic material which contains a low ash content.…”

“…The sago waste is divided into two forms, namely sago solid waste (sago hampas) and sago wastewater. Currently, sago hampas has not been utilized properly and has become an environmental problem because it is disposed of as waste [19,20]. The high amount of sago waste produced so far has not been used optimally, because it is only allowed to accumulate in the sago processing site, even then it becomes a source of environmental pollution [3].…”
