The batch-in-bin drying process involves using a bin as a batch dryer. A 3 to 4-foot deep layer of grain is placed in the bin and the fan and heater started. Typical drying air temperatures are 120 to 160F with airflow rates of 8 to 15 cfm/bushel. Drying begins at the floor and progresses upward. Grain at the floor of the bin becomes excessively dry while the top layer of the batch remains fairly wet. The grain is cooled in the bin after it is dried. Some batch-in-bin dryers hold the grain being dried in a layer near the roof. After the grain is dried it is dropped to the bin floor where it is cooled. As the grain is moved from the bin, the grain is mixed, and the average moisture content going into final storage should be low enough that mold growth will not be a problem. 2, record 6, English, - batch%20dryer

Inside Bake Ovens(IBO) are used in the beverage container industry. Aluminum cans are coated inside for sanitation purposes and to prevent aluminum taste in the beverage. Typically the cans are spray coated and transferred to a flat belt conveyor. This conveyor transfers the cans to the belt going through the oven.... A very precisely engineered air delivery system is used to apply heated process air to the can pack as it goes through the oven. The air must be sufficient enough to plunge into the can and reach the depth of the coating and yet be gentle enough to not tip the very light aluminum can. Oven balance is very critical for... drying and curing all of the cans equally. 2, record 7, English, - inside%20bake%20oven

"Drying is a preservation process that prevents the deterioration of perishable crops and allows for handling, transport, and storage of food products for sale outside the community where they are grown. Researchers at Chiang Mai University in northeastern Thailand have adapted drying technologies to help expand the markets for fruits and vegetables. For individual farmers, a cabinet-type tray dryer was designed with a capacity of 100 kg. Warm air is produced by a wood-fired furnace and a natural thermal draft moves the air throughout the unit. This dryer has been tested and accepted by the longan farmers who have tried it, and is suitable in those areas where sufficient fuelwood is available". 1, record 10, English, - Multi%2Dcrop%20Dryers

Dehydration is one of the easiest forms of food preservation. During dehydration the moisture is evaporated from the food, inhibiting the growth of microorganisms and bacteria. The air inside the dehydrator is heated; it dries and circulates the air so that it absorbs the moisture from food placed in the drying chamber. The air temperature is low enough to dry the food, it does not cook the food. Dehydration is one of the least damaging forms of food preservation, most nutrients and vitamins remain unaffected by the dehydration process. Some foods, fruits for example, taste sweeter because the water is removed and the sugar is more concentrated. 2, record 13, English, - drying%20chamber

Drying of gases : The removal of 95-100% of the water vapor in air or other gases is frequently necessary. Gases having a dew point of-40°F are considered commercially dry. The more important reasons for the removal of water vapor from air are :(1) comfort, as in air conditioning;(2) control of the humidity of manufacturing atmospheres;(3) protection of electrical equipment against corrosion, short circuits, and electrostatic discharges;(4) requirement of dry air for the use in chemical processes where moisture present in air adversely affects the economy of the process;(5) prevention of water absorption in pneumatic conveying; and(6) as a prerequisite to liquifaction. 3, record 14, English, - dry%20air

Réfrigération et congélation - Le taux maximal d'humidité que peut contenir un gaz décroît rapidement avec la température : pour l'air chargé de vapeur d'eau, par exemple, sa valeur à 30 °C n'est plus que le centième de celle qu'on observe à 20 °C; ceci découle immédiatement des variations correspondantes des tensions de vapeur. Le refroidissement d'une masse de gaz produit donc une dessiccation, une élimination des parties les plus condensables par dépôt sur les parois de l'appareil où s'effectue l'opération : c'est le piégeage à basse température. En général, le gaz à purifier circule sous pression ordinaire ou réduite autour d'une chemise baignée à l'extérieur par un liquide réfrigérant, sur laquelle se condense à l'état liquide ou solide à éliminer. Le condensat solide formé, sans inconvénient pour de faibles quantités, gêne cependant les transferts de chaleur accompagnant la condensation, lorsque son épaisseur est grande; il est alors nécessaire d'arrêter le fonctionnement de l'appareil et de procéder à un réchauffement temporaire, pour fondre le dépôt et l'éliminer par ruissellement vers la partie inférieure ou s'opère une vidange. 2, record 14, French, - air%20sec

Retort technology... charcoal processes... The Lambiotte continuous carbonization process is related to the multi-stage type reactor.... Wood is fed continuously through a vertical cylinder into a retort. There, it undergoes three different treatments, moving slowly down to the bottom of the retort. In the first, it is dried, in the second, the charcoal process takes place, and in the third, charcoal is cooled. For the drying stage, pyroligneous gases are removed from the carbonization zone and fanned to the drying zone where they burn with a controlled supply of air. For the cooling stage, gases are removed from under the carbonization stage, where tars have been cracked, and reinjected at the bottom of the retort after having crossed a water cooled system. The sufficiently cooled charcoal is extracted from the bottom of the retort. The level of raw material inside the retort is kept at the maximum height possible. The excess of gas(50%) is generally flared off but can be directed through a by-product recovery system as for the Sific process. The process is fully automated. 1, record 19, English, - Lambiotte%20continuous%20carbonization%20process

Il opère en continu avec circulation externe de gaz de chauffage [...] Les gaz, au contraire du procédé Reichert, circulent en montant à contre-courant du bois. Il y a une zone de séchage et préchauffage, une zone de carbonisation exothermique puis une zone de refroidissement. Les gaz qui s'échappent par le haut sont refroidis, condensés, lavés. Les calories du charbon de bois sont en partie récupérées et le bilan matière comme le bilan énergétique sont particulièrement bien calculés dans ce procédé.

A variation of flash drying is embodied in the so-called "steam dryer", where fluffed pulp is dried in a medium of slightly superheated low-pressure steam rather than in hot air. Heat is transferred to the pulp and transport steam by indirectly condensing higher-pressure steam. The water evaporated from the pulp is removed from the steam as low-pressure steam suitable for process use in the pulp or paper mill. It is claimed that net heat consumption can be as low as one-fourth of that used in a conventional drying system. 1, record 21, English, - steam%20dryer
