This study evaluates the feasibility of retrofitting a rotary
dryer to a hog fuel boiler, using the boiler exhaust gases as the

Two simulation models were developed. As substantiated by experimental
measurement of existing boiler/dryer systems, each model
accurately predicts system performance given site-specific parameters
such as boiler...
