    A rotary dryer using bunker oil is removing moisture from wet sand. The wet sand contains 7% moisture and needs to be dried to 0.5% moisture. 20 metric tons per hour of dried sand is the target. Calculations are required to determine the weight of wet feed needed, water to be removed, heat required, and amount of bunker oil required per hour given properties of the sand, temperatures, and dryer efficiency.

    Drying Processes

    5. A rotar y dr yer fired with bunker oil of 10,000 kcal/ kg hi gher heating value
    is to produce 20 metri c tons/hr of dried sand with 0.5% moisture from a
    wet feed containing 7% moisture. Specific heat of sand is 0.21 Btu/lb —°F.
    T e mpe r at ur e of we t sa nd i s 30 °C a nd t e mp er at ur e of dr i ed pr od uct i s
    115°C.
    a. Calculate the weight of wet feed.
    b. Calculate the weight of water to be removed in kg/hr.
    c. Calculate the heat required.
    d. Calculate the liters of bunker oil per hour if specific gravity of bunker
    oil is 0.90 and dryer efficiency is . 60`)/0.
