The dryer was intended to produce powders of controlled particle size. First, the precursor is dissolved in water to produce a solution of known concentration and then it is atomized on the spray-dryer to produce the powder. This equipment consists of a 304 stainless steel chamber, 0.48 m x 1.9 m (diameter x length), with a conical shape at the lower portion, which is assembled on a vertical platform. The chamber is heated by three 4 kW electrical resistances. In this process, drying air is heated as it flows inside a serpentine surrounding the chamber, in contrary to more traditional processes in which the hot drying air is used to heat the component. The air enters the chamber at the same temperature of the chamber, thus avoiding adherence of particles on the internal surface. The low speed flow is concurrent, directed from the top to the bottom portion of the chamber. Powders are deposited on a 0.4 m diameter tray, which separates the cylindrical portion from the conical portion of the chamber. The humid air is discharged though a plug placed underneath the collecting tray. A factorial experimental planning was prepared to study the influence of five parameters (concentration, input flow, operation temperature, drying air flow and spray air flow) on the characteristics of the powders produced. Particle size distribution and shape were measured by laser granulometry and scanning electronic microscopy. Then, the powders are submitted to reaction in a CH4 / H2 atmosphere to compare the characteristics of spray-dried powders with powders synthetizided by conventional methods / O presente trabalho consiste em projetar e construir um secador spray com a finalidade de secar precursores do tipo oxalato-niobato de am?nia para obten??o de p?s com granulometria controlada e adequados ? produ??o de carbetos de Ni?bio policristalino. Este precursor ? atualmente obtido com granulometria dispersa, e morfologia n?o uniforme. A secagem em spray pode uniformizar as propriedades de materiais que s?o dissolvidos em ?gua, gerando uma solu??o de concentra??o conhecida que ? ent?o, atomizada no secador spray visando ? obten??o do material na forma de p?. O secador ? constitu?do por uma c?mara de secagem em a?o inox 304 medindo 0,48 m de di?metro por 1,90 m de comprimento, montado em uma plataforma vertical e com formato tronco c?nico na sua parte inferior. A c?mara ? aquecida por tr?s cintas de resist?ncias eletricas com pot?ncia total de 4 kW e o ar ? aquecido ao passar por serpentinas constru?das ao redor da c?mara de secagem. O sistema foi projetado de maneira n?o convencional tendo como objetivo principal a produ??o de p?s de precursores com granulometria fina e com uma boa distribui??o do tamanho das part?culas. Foi realizado um planejamento fatorial experimental visando ? an?lise da influ?ncia de cinco par?metros (concentra??o, vaz?o da alimenta??o, temperatura de opera??o, vaz?o do ar de secagem e vaz?o do ar do atomizador) sobre as caracter?sticas dos p?s obtidos usando-se solu??es de bicarbonato de s?dio. As Caracter?sticas f?sicas foram avaliadas a partir de an?lise de ?rea superficial, DRX, tamanho e forma das part?culas, granulometria a laser e microscopia eletr?nica de varredura. Em seguida foi realizada a secagem do precursor e, os p?s obtidos foram submetidos a rea??es com CH4 / H2 com o objetivo de comparar as caracter?sticas dos p?s oriundos do secador spray e aqueles que n?o tiveram esse tratamento. Os resultados mostraram que o equipamento produziu part?culas de bicarbonato de s?dio com di?metros m?dios de 2,4 a 52,4 μm, conforme as temperatura e vaz?es de alimenta??o, e se mostrou capaz de secar precursores do tipo oxalato-niobato de am?nia sem perda de suas caracter?sticas
