Blue algae cells have no chromatophores, and the pigments are distributed in the pigment area outside the protoplasm. They are blue-green in color, and have no gelatinous sheath on the surface of the algae, making them difficult for microorganisms to attach. There are bubbles in the cells, and they float well. The tops of cells or filaments are often not pointed, and the cross walls are often not obvious. The top cells are round, and the outer walls are not thickened. During the processing of Spirulina, it is necessary to use a drying device to dry it.

The drum 4 rotates stably through the main bearing 3 to throw out the moisture outside the spirulina, thereby facilitating the dehydration of the spirulina drying.

[0022] In the case implementation, a drying mechanism 6 extending into the interior of the drying box 2 is provided on the top of the drying box 2, and the drying mechanism 6 includes a protective cover 601. The protective cover 601 is fixedly installed on the top of the drying box 2, and a heating box 602 is fixedly installed inside the protective cover 601.

[0029] 3) The first exhaust fan 604 then extracts the natural wind from the outside into the heating box 602, and the heater 603 heats the natural wind into hot air;

[0030] 4) After the spirulina is dehydrated, the servo motor 502 is still running to rotate the drum 4, and at the same time, the second exhaust fan 605 is running to extract the hot air inside the heating box 602 to the inside of the air guide 607;

[0033] Furthermore, by setting the nozzle 608, the natural wind from the outside is first sucked into the interior of the heating box 602 through the first exhaust fan 604, and then the natural wind is heated into hot air through the heater 603. When the spirulina is dehydrated, the servo motor 502 is still running to rotate the drum 4. At the same time, the second exhaust fan 605 is running to suck the hot air inside the heating box 602 into the interior of the air duct 607, and the hot air is transported to each nozzle 608 through the air duct 607. The multiple nozzles 608 spray the hot air into the interior of the drying box 2, and the rotating drum 4 can prevent the accumulation of spirulina therein, so that the rotating drum can be evenly dried by the hot air, thereby achieving uniform drying of the spirulina and increasing the drying efficiency.
