Spray Drying

Valentine Chemicals operates one of the largest contract spray drying facilities in the United States, drying a wide variety of water borne solutions. With one of the largest production spray dryers in the industry along with a smaller production spray dryer we have the capacity to spray dry over 50,000 lbs per day of liquids.

 

Polymer Reactions

In 2018 Valentine Chemicals added oil & gas cementing polymer reactions to its core capability and since then has reacted nearly 100 million lbs of polyacrylamides. The plant is set up as a batch operation for closed vessel vacuum distillation to draw out reflux in stages. Quality assurance is located adjacent to our laboratory for ongoing monitoring.

​

All of our reactors are agitated, steam-heated, and water-cooled, served by dual liquid-ring vacuum systems; three reactors have over-head condensers and two of those have internal cooling/heating coils.
