Rotary dryers consist of a rotating cylindrical shell that can be horizontal or slightly inclined. In a rotary dryer the heat transfer mechanism can be either direct or indirect. Direct-heat rotary dryers are more common than indirect-heat rotary dryers. Shown here is a rotary dryer getting installed

Rotary dryers work by tumbling material in a rotating drum in the presence of a drying air. They can also be indirectly heated to avoid direct contact between the material and processing medium. The drum is positioned at a slight horizontal slope to allow gravity to assist in moving material through the drum

Drying is the thermal process through which liquid is separated from a solid-liquid mixture by the application of heat and also by accelerating evaporation through vacuum. The amount of water vapor in the air at any given time is usually less than that required to saturate the air. Relative Humidity is the percent of saturation humidity, generally calculated in relation to saturated vapor density
