Modeling and Design of a Solar Rotary Dryer Bench Test for Phosphate Sludge
Modelling and Simulation in Engineering, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 As an eco‐friendlier way to manage mining waste, the use of solar energy to dry phosphate sludge in a rotary dryer is envisioned. As a first step toward this end, a design study for a bench‐scale rotary dryer for phosphate sludge is detailed, using a one‐dimensional mathematical model developed for this task. Using the Engineering Equation Solver (EES)
