Berndorf Band Group: Your Trustworthy Partner in Solidification and Cooling Processes for Sulphur and Fertilizer Industries

Berndorf, January 2024 – In the dynamic and demanding landscape of sulphur and fertilizer production, the Berndorf Band Group emerges as your total solution provider, offering comprehensive solutions from engineering to implementation. Beyond the pioneering BernDrop® AD200 with raised shell feeding device, Berndorf Band Group’s Cooling Systems set a new standard in efficiency, precision, and cost-effectiveness.

The sulphur-based fertilizer industries, which are central to global agriculture and industrial processes, encounter increasing challenges in meeting growing demands sustainably. Berndorf Band Group addresses these challenges with its extensive portfolio for cooling and solidification solutions. The company offers equipment for the entire production process:

  • Engineering and manufacturing of required process equipment, from molten sulphur and bentonite powder handling, through mixing, solidification, to final pastille handling and bagging
  • Start-up and process technology support
  • Plant layout design
  • Equipment specifications

 

Enhancing production outputs thanks to an innovative design of the pastillator

The BernDrop® AD200 feeding device is especially designed to exceed the requirements of the fertilizer and sulphur bentonite industry. The special raised shell geometry secures highest pastille quality, minimizes wear parts and reduces maintenance, while its innovative design enhances production outputs significantly. The specially shaped shell not only increases production speeds but eliminates the risk of product deposits on the outer shell. This design ensures a seamless production process, allowing the BernDrop® AD200 to achieve the production of sulphur bentonite and fertilizer pastilles without the need for a refeed bar and external seals, leading to lower operating costs.

Single Belt Cooler for Sulphur Based Fertilizers

Berndorf Cooling Systems are known for their proficiency in heat transfer, effectively managing excess heat during the cooling and hardening processes of various products using indirect cooling technology. The Berndorf Band Group’s indirect cooling process is instrumental in optimizing solidification for sulphur and fertilizer production by removing product heat and ensuring suitable conditions for the solidification process. The integrated stainless-steel spray water tanks allow for the re-circulation of cooling water using a pumping system, enhancing sustainability and resource efficiency. There is no contact between the water and the product. At the end of the Single Belt Cooler, a discharge device powered by pneumatics removes products from the belt, contributing to the overall efficiency of the process.

 

The Single Belt Coolers are equipped with unique features such as the clip on water spray nozzles, the UHMW snap on slider bed belt support, and a removable squeegee tank assembly, ensuring the highest cooling efficiency and easy maintenance. The high-quality Steel Belt guarantees reliable operation.

  • Solidification of the pastilles on the steel belt occurs due to heat transfer from cooling water sprayed on the underside of the belt.
  • Efficient fume removal with exhaust ventilation and hood in the first cooling zone.
  • Release agent applicator to prevent pastilles from adhering to the steel belt.

NICRO 12.1. and NICRO 94 for higher corrosion resistance

Choosing the right belt material is of crucial importance for sectors like the sulphur bentonite industry. Extensive research and development were necessary to find the material best suited for Steel Belts: with NICRO 12.1 and NICRO 94 for higher corrosion resistance, our Steel Belts particularly stand out as perfect fit for these industries.

 

Key facts about our high-quality steel belts

  • Optimum flatness & straightness due to special production method
  • Corrosion resistant
  • Smooth Surface
  • Perfect adhesion of vee-ropes

 

What you can produce with our Steel Belt Solidification and Cooling Systems
