APPARATUS FOR CONTINUOUSLY DISTILLING AND DRYING SAKE LESS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a continuous distilling and drying apparatus of SAKE lees, capable of continuously and efficiently recovering ethanol contained in SAKE lees and efficiently drying the solid residue after recovering ethanol. SOLUTION: This apparatus is constituted of an extruder 1 for extruding SAKE lees A while pressurizing SAKE lees under heating, a flash drum 2 for separating SAKE less A extruded from the extruder 1 into an ethanol-containing vapor (a) and a residue (b), a condenser 4 for condensing the ethanol-containing vapor (a) separated by the flash drum 2, a granulating machine 6 for granulating the residue (b) separated by the flash drum 2 and a drier 7 for drying the solid residue granulated by the granulating machine 6.
