A tumbler may be used as defluidizer, dryer, coater, classifier, or dynamic filter. The tumbler includes a housing for rotatably supporting a removable screened drum on a plurality of rollers. The drum receives a solid/fluid slurry through an inlet chute. As the slurry travels through the drum, fluid exits the drum through a plurality of apertures in screens attached to the sides of the drum, while the solids continue along the drum's length until they reach one or more openings and exit the drum into an outlet chute. The outlet chute includes ridges that wrap around rings extending from the openings of the drum to prevent solids from escaping the outlet chute. To further dry the solids before they exit the drum, an air tube disposed within the drum is configured to direct air through the screens to an air blower intake positioned outside of the drum.

To further dry the solids before they exit the drum, an air tube at least partially disposed within the drum is configured to introduce a flow of air into the drum.

Bearings for fire retardant dryer seals, fire retardant dryer seals, and related methods are provided herein. A fire retardant dryer seal can include an elongate, flexible base substrate having a first end and a second end. The base substrate can also have a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. A fire retardant dryer seal can include a bearing having a first end and a second end with the bearing including a needlepunched nonwoven having a reinforced scrim and fibers with silicon therein. The first end and the second end of the base substrate secured to the first end and the second end of the bearing so that the bearing and the base substrate forms an annular shape. A heat resistant coating can be disposed on at least the first surface of the base substrate.

A flame protection apparatus for a burner, in particular in a drying drum, in particular in an asphalt facility, has a central longitudinal axis and a plurality of plate fins which are arranged in a circumferential arrangement in the circumferential direction with respect to the central longitudinal axis, wherein plate fins that are arranged adjacent to one another in the circumferential direction are sealed by means of a circumferential gap seal.
