Dryer or Kiln?
Experts in process design and material
processing for over 65 years.
Moisture Reduction:
Rotary kilns are an advanced thermal
processing tool used to cause a chemical
reaction or physical change in a solid
material through the application of
high temperatures.
Although the primary goal of a rotary kiln is to
drive this reaction, an issue that often comes
up during the process development stage, is
when to draw out excess moisture from the
feedstock.
Often times, there is surface moisture that will
need to be removed before processing can
begin, and one is faced with a decision: buy
another piece of equipment, or use the rotary
kiln to do the job.
Often times, there is surface moisture that will
need to be removed before processing can
begin, and one is faced with a decision: buy
another piece of equipment, or use the rotary
kiln to do the job.
Each option offers its own unique advantages
and disadvantages…
Using the
Rotary Kiln
While a rotary kiln is capable of removing
moisture from the feedstock, this tends to
be a much less efficient approach.
While a rotary kiln is capable of removing
moisture from the feedstock, this tends to
be a much less efficient approach.
This is because the material typically slides
along the interior of the kiln, unlike a rotary
dryer where material is showered through
the drying air to maximize heat transfer.
This results in the need for a much longer
drying time, as well as increased energy
costs.
This results in the need for a much longer
drying time, as well as increased energy
costs.
And while this does result in inefficient
processing, the advantage to using the
kiln is that an additional piece of
equipment is not needed.
Using a
Rotary Dryer
As an alternative, a rotary dryer can be
added to the process.
Rotary dryers work similarly to rotary kilns,
but operate at lower temperatures.
Rotary dryers work similarly to rotary kilns,
but operate at lower temperatures.
Additionally, flights, or material lifters, lift up
the material and drop it through the
drying air as the drum rotates, maximizing
heat transfer between the material and
drying air.
This approach offers an efficient drying
option, and leaves the rotary kiln the sole
purpose of driving the reaction.
This approach offers an efficient drying
option, and leaves the rotary kiln the sole
purpose of driving the reaction.
While this does require additional
equipment to be purchased, energy costs
are lower than if the kiln were to be used
to carry out drying, because this
approach is more efficient.
Conclusion
Both rotary kilns and rotary dryers can be used
to drive off excess moisture in a process setting.
Each approach offers advantages and
disadvantages, with the choice coming down
to what benefits outweigh the costs for the
unique situation at hand.
has been a leader in the thermal processing
industry since the 1950s, providing process &
product development, feasibility testing,
maintenance services, and high-quality,
custom rotary kilns.

Moisture Reduction: Dryer or Kiln?

  • 1. Dryer or Kiln? Experts in process design and material processing for over 65 years. Moisture Reduction:
  • 2. Rotary kilns are an advanced thermal processing tool used to cause a chemical reaction or physical change in a solid material through the application of high temperatures.
  • 3. Although the primary goal of a rotary kiln is to drive this reaction, an issue that often comes up during the process development stage, is when to draw out excess moisture from the feedstock.
  • 4. Often times, there is surface moisture that will need to be removed before processing can begin, and one is faced with a decision: buy another piece of equipment, or use the rotary kiln to do the job.
  • 5. Often times, there is surface moisture that will need to be removed before processing can begin, and one is faced with a decision: buy another piece of equipment, or use the rotary kiln to do the job. Each option offers its own unique advantages and disadvantages…
  • 7. While a rotary kiln is capable of removing moisture from the feedstock, this tends to be a much less efficient approach.
  • 8. While a rotary kiln is capable of removing moisture from the feedstock, this tends to be a much less efficient approach. This is because the material typically slides along the interior of the kiln, unlike a rotary dryer where material is showered through the drying air to maximize heat transfer.
  • 9. This results in the need for a much longer drying time, as well as increased energy costs.
  • 10. This results in the need for a much longer drying time, as well as increased energy costs. And while this does result in inefficient processing, the advantage to using the kiln is that an additional piece of equipment is not needed.
  • 12. As an alternative, a rotary dryer can be added to the process.
  • 13. Rotary dryers work similarly to rotary kilns, but operate at lower temperatures.
  • 14. Rotary dryers work similarly to rotary kilns, but operate at lower temperatures. Additionally, flights, or material lifters, lift up the material and drop it through the drying air as the drum rotates, maximizing heat transfer between the material and drying air.
  • 15. This approach offers an efficient drying option, and leaves the rotary kiln the sole purpose of driving the reaction.
  • 16. This approach offers an efficient drying option, and leaves the rotary kiln the sole purpose of driving the reaction. While this does require additional equipment to be purchased, energy costs are lower than if the kiln were to be used to carry out drying, because this approach is more efficient.
  • 17. Conclusion Both rotary kilns and rotary dryers can be used to drive off excess moisture in a process setting. Each approach offers advantages and disadvantages, with the choice coming down to what benefits outweigh the costs for the unique situation at hand.
