Grain drying auger and drum with air holes
12135167 · 2024-11-05 · ·

In some embodiments, a grain drying apparatus may include a drum with a grain auger including a flighting with air holes. The drum may be surrounded by an outer drum, the inner drum including a plurality of drum air holes. A volume of dehydrated air may pass around a helical air diverter, located in an annulus between the inner drum and the outer drum, and through the grain, thereby drying the grain.

Continuous bagging processes and systems

Methods and systems for continuously bagging pellets formed from a tacky and/or polymer containing formulation include improved drying systems and techniques. The methods and systems may include directing a flow of air to help contain moisture within a dryer, transport pellets out of the dryer, and/or dry pellets as they move away from the dryer. The methods and systems may include conditioning (e.g., drying, coating, classifying) the pellets using a conditioning unit prior to bagging the pellets.
