Engineering analysis of a rotary dryer : drying of wood particles

Creator:

Kamke, Frederick A.

Abstract:

Rotary dryers are the most commonly used wood drying system in the particleboard industry. These dryers also play an increasingly important role in drying wood residues for fuel. Many potential benefits may be realized through an improved understanding of the rotary drying process. A rotary dryer simulation model was developed,...

Emission, energy, and production efficiency of a radio-frequency assisted gas-fired veneer dryer

Creator:

Zenke, Randall C.

Abstract:

The drying of wood is required in most forest products manufacturing operations. Depending on the wood species, dimensions, drying temperatures, and drying duration, the amount of emissions and energy consumption can greatly affect the operating cost, environment, and quality of wood dried. As such, the forest products industry continues to...
