In grain drying, energy efficiency measures the amount of energy it takes to remove water from grain. This is normally measured in British Thermal Units per pound of water (BTU/lb). The metric equivalent is kilojoules per kilogram of water (kJ/kg). In theory, it takes 970 BTU/lb. (2,260 kJ/kg) to evaporate water.

A variety of drying methodologies are available including spray drying, rotary drying, fluid-bed drying, infrared heating, microwave heating and others. The most common approach uses fluidized bed systems, which leads to a uniform drying of leaves to a low moisture content.

The energy efficiency for convective dryers is usually calculated based on the temperature of the drying medium at the inlet, outlet, and the ambient air temperature. The basic approach to calculating any energy efficiency, K, is to take the ratio of energy required, Er, to energy supplied, Es: K = Er/ Es. When considering opportunities for ...

When drying (and/or preheating) materials which are unaffected by heat or exposure to a flame, an oil or gas burner can be arranged to fire directly into the drum.

Drying processes are commonly used for food and agriculture's industry to maintain a rising variety of foods. Drying processes are known as energy intensive operations and consume about 7–15% of the industry total energy consumption in some countries and it might reach up to 33%, with comparatively low thermal efficiency around 25–50% [34].

The preservation of foods by drying is the time-honored and most common method used by humans and the food processing industry. Dehydration (or drying) is defined as 'the application of heat under controlled conditions to remove the majority of the water normally present in a food by evaporation' (or in the case of freeze drying by sublimation ).

Economical and ecological air dryers can fulfill all the requirements for higher paper quality, lower production costs and improved runnability. Air dryers versus infrared dryers in coating machines. • Energy efficiency up to 90 % in air dryers. • Energy efficiency only 40 % with IR drying. • Energy savings 50% compared to IR drying.

5.3 Direct Heating/Drying. Direct heating and drying refers to combustion products mixing directly with the process environment (typically process solids and a forced "air" stream). Because radiation transfer is rapid, typically at high temperature, and ceases upon reaching a boundary (the outer layer of process matter), it is often ...

The rate of drying is determined for a sample of substance by suspending it in a cabinet or duct, in a stream of air from a balance. The weight of the drying sample can then be measured as a function of time from wet product to bone dry product. The curve of moisture content as a function of time, similar to fig 2.1, can be plotted.
