Matrix Engineering provided civil, structural and mechanical design for a spray dryer facility used in the production of pharmaceutical clay. Matrix assisted in the facility layout by coordinating the client with the spray dryer equipment manufacturer as well as the structural requirements of the seventy feet tall, 5-floor structure. We also designed a large versatile mechanical ventilation system for keeping the work environment bearable around a hot process during the summer months. In additions we engineered the sanitary dense phase pneumatic conveying systems for moving the powdered clay around the dryer facility as well as pneumatic blending to homogenize batch campaigns.
Twenty years later, Matrix was recalled to design and build a twin facility with a new spray dryer right next to this one.
