    Drying is a process that removes water from materials with small amounts of water using hot surfaces. It works by directly heating the material so the solvent evaporates and leaves as a vapor while the dried solids remain. Drying occurs through moisture migrating from the interior of grains to their surface and then evaporating into the surrounding air. The rate of drying depends on the moisture content, temperature of the grain and air, relative humidity, and air velocity against the grain. Distillation is also discussed but no details are provided about the process.

    DRYING

    DRYING
    Removal of water from
    materials containing a
    relatively small amount
    of water using hot
    surfaces

    DRYING (Direct Heating)


    Solvent, S
    Wet
    Solids, W

    DRYER

    Dried
    Solids, D

    Solvent Stream, S : leaves as


    a vapor, and is solids free
    Dried Solids, D : leave in the
    solid phase, and may contain
    the solvent
    Feed, F : can be a solid,
    slurry or solution

    Mechanisms of Drying
    Migration of moisture from the
    interior of an individual grain to the
    surface;
    Evaporation of moisture from the
    surface of the surrounding air
    Rate of Drying is Dependent on the
    following:
    1. Moisture Content
    2. Temperature and temperature of
    the Grain
    3. Relative Humidity
    4. Velocity of the air in contact with
    the grain.
