The present invention relates to a method for drying an electrode plate capable of solving an electrode plate overdrying problem and a drying uniformity deterioration problem due to a pressure change by including: a supply air volume setting step of setting an initial supply air volume introduced into a drier to a target air volume or less; an exhaust air volume setting step of setting an initial exhaust air volume to a numerical value corresponding to the initial supply air volume set in the supply air volume setting step; and an air volume adjusting step of increasing a supply air volume and an exhaust air volume from the initial air volumes set in the supply air volume setting step and the exhaust air volume setting step to designated target air volumes for a predetermined time, and a system for drying an electrode plate capable of effectively implementing the same.

A biomass stabilization assembly for managing soft cell organic waste ingredients. Prescribed ingredients are introduced into an inner chamber of a housing, such as through a top hatch, with subsequent unloading of a completed and chemically inert product occurring through a concealed chute and a rear port exhausting H2O gas vapor. The invention includes associated control and processor based components and operates outdoors or indoors of individual facilities and may further incorporate software protocols and algorithms which permit any status monitoring or modification of operational parameters as determined by sensor inputs.

A heat pump dryer includes a main casing, a compressor, a first heat exchanger having a first portion and a second portion, and a second heat exchanger. The main casing has an air inlet, a first outlet conduit, a second outlet conduit, a first air outlet, and a second air outlet. Air is arranged to enter the main casing through the air inlet, and is arranged to be bifurcated to pass through the first outlet conduit and the second outlet conduit. The air in the first outlet conduit is arranged to sequentially flow through the second heat exchanger and the first portion of the first heat exchanger, whereas the air in the second outlet conduit is arranged to flow through the second portion of the second heat exchanger.

An oil sludge treatment system includes: a reduced-pressure fermentation dryer; a filtration apparatus; and a cleaner. The reduced-pressure fermentation dryer is configured to: store oil sludge in an airtight container; heat and stir the oil sludge under reduced pressure so that a temperature of the oil sludge is within a predetermined temperature range; decompose organic matter contained in the oil sludge using microorganisms while evaporating water; and obtain volume-reduced dried product. The filtration apparatus filters oil from the dried product. The cleaner cleans, by steam, the dried product from which the oil has been filtered.
