Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0576053A1] The fluidised bed (3), in which the water-containing solids are dried, is indirectly heated by means of at least one heat exchanger device (4). Water vapour-rich fumes are extracted from the fluidised bed (3), and a part of the fumes is passed as fluidising medium through the fluidised bed (3). The remaining fumes are cooled, to form a fume condensate. At least a part of the fume condensate is contacted directly in a purification zone (26) with a stripping medium in the form of gas or vapour. From the purification zone (26), a purified condensate and, separately from the latter, stripping medium containing impurities are drawn off. Preferably, steam is used as the stripping medium in the purification zone (26). <IMAGE>
