Remarkable Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings

The energy-saving benefits of JIMU Heat Pump Dryer are truly impressive:

• 40-50% lower energy costs compared to traditional drying methods8

• 11% cost reduction compared to steam drying1

• 50% cost reduction compared to traditional furnace drying1

• Quick return on investment: Equipment payback period as short as 6 years8

The system achieves these remarkable efficiencies through advanced heat recovery technology that captures and reuses thermal energy that would otherwise be wasted in conventional drying systems.

Intelligent Multi-Stage Drying Process

The JIMU Heat Pump Dryer implements a sophisticated multi-stage drying protocol specifically optimized for areca nuts:

1. Preheating stage: Rapid temperature rise to 48°C within 2 hours5

2. Intensive dehumidification stage I: Temperature maintained at 48-52°C until humidity reaches 75%5

3. Intensive dehumidification stage II: Temperature increased to 50-54°C until humidity drops to 65%5

4. Core moisture removal stage: Temperature further raised to 52-56°C until 55% humidity5

5. Core shaping stage: Temperature at 54-58°C until 45% humidity5

6. High-temperature drying stage: Temperature at 57-60°C until 32% humidity5

7. Uniform drying stage: Residual heat utilization for final moisture balancing5

This precision drying process ensures optimal quality while minimizing energy usage.
