A rotary vacuum drum drying system is described. The system may include a plurality of sensors and a control system operatively coupled with the plurality of sensors. The control system includes a processing device to receive, from the plurality of sensors, a plurality of parameters of the rotary vacuum drum drying system and transmit, to a client device, the plurality of parameters of the rotary vacuum drum drying system. The processing device is further to receive, from the client device, a message comprising an adjustment one or more parameters of the plurality of parameters and adjust the one or more parameters of the plurality of parameters based on the received message.

Provided are a modular oven structure and a tunnel oven. The modular oven structure comprises a frame and an air channel structure (1), wherein a tunnel air inlet chamber (15), a tunnel air return chamber (12) and a tunnel drying chamber (11) are arranged in the frame, a fan air inlet chamber (13) is arranged above the tunnel drying chamber (11), and a heater (2) is arranged in the fan air inlet chamber (13); a fan air outlet chamber (14) is arranged between the fan air inlet chamber (13) and the top of the frame; and a circulation fan (3) is arranged at the top of the frame, and an air inlet of the circulation fan (3) is in communication with the top of the fan air inlet chamber (13). The modular oven structure further comprises a temperature control system (5) and a control device, wherein the temperature control system (5) comprises several temperature sensors (51), and the temperature sensors (51) are arranged in the tunnel air inlet chamber (15) and/or the tunnel air return chamber (12); and output ends of the temperature sensors (51) are connected to the control device, and an output end of the control device is connected to a control signal input end of the heater (2) and a control signal input end of the circulation fan (3).

Provided herein are systems, methods, and processes for drying a softgel having a hydrophilic fill material and one or more active ingredients. After forming the hydrophilic softgel, for example, the softgel is dried by sequentially passing the softgel through a series of specific drying conditions, in which the first drying condition has a low temperature and low dew point. In certain examples, controlled airflow is also used to dry the softgels. By using the systems, methods, and processes, the total time to dry the hydrophilic softgel can be beneficially reduced from several days to about 24 hours without causing shriveling of the softgel.

A seed flow chamber for handling seed and grain commodity, especially for use with a seed treatment applicator. Seed flow is received through an upper inlet opening configured to receive a flow of seed and discharged through a lower discharge opening. A diverging guide member splits the seed flow. A converging guide member disposed below the diverging guide member reunites the seed flow prior to discharge. The converging member has a downward sloping surface and an air vent, such as a plurality of airflow apertures connected to a plenum. The air vent is configured to communicate with an air supply. A vacuum ventdisposed below the diverging guide memberis configured to communicate with a vacuum source. A fan system recirculates air between the air vent and the vacuum vent. Dehumidifier may condition the air supply to assist with drying.

Kiln design that uses a series of at least two subsections with airflow in constant but alternating directions instead of using bi-directional fans that periodically reverse directions. The uninterrupted alternating air flow may be used in continuous drying kilns (CDK) with two sets of carriages carrying spaced stacks of lumber travel in opposite directions through a sequence of chambers. The uninterrupted alternating air flow may be used with a set of at least one pathway for carriages carrying lumber to be dried where all carriages move from a first end of the kiln to a second end of the kiln.

An apparatus for controlling the temperature of workpieces, in particular of vehicle bodies, has a temperature-control tunnel, a traction chamber and an intermediate floor which is arranged between the temperature-control tunnel and the traction chamber and which has a connection passage. The apparatus includes a conveying device for conveying the workpieces in the temperature-control tunnel, wherein the conveying device has at least one conveying carriage with a running gear and has a workpiece carrier for holding the workpieces of which the temperature is to be controlled. The running gear is arranged in the traction chamber and is connected by a connecting device, which projects through the connection passage of the intermediate floor, to the workpiece carrier arranged in the temperature-control tunnel. To control the temperature of the traction chamber and thus adequately protect the running gear against heat or cold, the intermediate floor is equipped at least in regions with an active cooling and/or heating means.
