In many industrial processes, rotary dryers are relied upon for high capacity, consistent drying of bulk solids — and for good reason. They offer innumerable benefits, both to the process and the product.
In order to select a dryer with proper diameter and length, the total moisture load to be evaporated first must be determined. Total moisture will depend on final moisture desired, ambient temperature and humidity, and the desired amount of recycle and amount of chemical heat, if applicable.
