A Dall Mill Dryer (Wood-fired) is an industrial machine specifically designed to reduce the moisture content of pulses (like Toor, Moong, Urad, Masoor, etc.) using wood as its primary fuel source. This essential pre-processing step prepares pulses for optimal husking, splitting into dal, and ensures their extended shelf life, especially in regions where wood fuel is abundant and cost-effective.
This dryer operates by circulating hot air, generated from the combustion of wood, through a drying chamber where the pulses are exposed. The design typically incorporates a robust combustion chamber for wood, a heat exchanger to prevent direct contact of smoke with pulses, and a controlled airflow system to ensure uniform drying without scorching. Precise temperature and airflow management are crucial to reduce moisture effectively while preserving the nutritional value, texture, and natural color of the pulses. The use of wood-firing makes it an economically viable and often preferred option for many pulse processing units in specific geographical locations.
Baba Agro Export's Wood-fired Dall Mill Dryers are engineered for high efficiency, reliability, and ease of maintenance. They feature sturdy construction, often with insulated chambers for energy retention, and user-friendly controls for managing the drying process. Integrating this type of dryer into a dal mill operation not only reduces reliance on conventional fuels but also significantly improves the quality of the raw material, leading to higher output of premium-grade dal and enhanced profitability.
The main advantage is significantly reduced operational costs due to the use of readily available and often cheaper wood fuel, offering an economical drying solution.
It utilizes an optimized hot air circulation system and carefully designed drying chambers to ensure even heat distribution and consistent moisture removal across all pulses.
Yes, our dryers incorporate heat exchangers that prevent direct contact between the smoke/combustion gases and the pulses, ensuring a hygienic drying process for food safety.
This dryer is versatile and suitable for drying various types of pulses, including Toor (Pigeon Pea), Moong (Green Gram), Urad (Black Gram), Masoor (Lentil), and more, before milling.
Proper drying makes pulses easier to husk and split, leading to higher recovery rates of dal, reduced breakage, and an overall improvement in the quality of the finished product.
