Abstract:
A fluidized bed system is a single unitary modular system that packages a circulation fan, a fluidized bed, and a dust collection system within a same structure. The structure is formed to include internal ducts to provide fluid communication between the circulation fan, the fluidized bed, and the dust collection system. The fan provides a flow of air via a pressure duct to the fluidized bed. Particulate is separated from particles included on the fluidized bed by the flow of air being uniformly distributed to the fluidized bed. Particulate separated in a disengagement area and suspended in the flow of air is conducted through a particulate clearance space surrounding the dust collection system. The particulate is captured by the dust collection system and conveyed to a location external to the system.

Claim (Index 18):
A method comprising:\n receiving particles in a fluidized bed, the fluidized bed being disposed in a housing structure, the housing structure configured to include a circulation fan, the fluidized bed, and a filter system disposed in the housing structure in fluid communication via a series of ducts, the ducts being integrally formed within the housing structure; subjecting the fluidized bed to a flow of air supplied by the circulation fan through the ducts to a bottom side of the fluidized bed; separating particulate from the particles received in the fluidized bed within a disengaging height formed by the ducts above the fluidized bed; receiving the separated particulate in the flow of air at an inlet to a particulate clearance space formed by the ducts, the inlet being above the disengaging height; and channeling the particulate in the flow of air vertically via the particulate clearance space to a dust hopper included in the filter system, the dust hopper positioned above the fluidized bed to receive at least some of the particulate.
