Abstract

See full text

A system and method for conveying and dispersing a fluid, particularly a low-shear tolerant fluid, onto a granulated material using at least two spray nozzles. Using at least two spray nozzles achieves the same total flow rate as a single nozzle, but reduces the pressure and shear forces on the fluid, allowing fluids containing biological components to be sprayed at the same total flow rate without damaging the biological components. A conveyor or chute transports the granulated material in a wide, thinner laminar plane under the spray nozzles. The spray nozzles are supported above the conveyor or chute and are adjustable as to height and angle. An optional blow-off nozzle directs compressed gas to clean the spray nozzles when fluid spraying has stopped.
