An apparatus for treating a slurry substance comprising: a support structure; a dryer system including drums rotatably mounted to the structure, the drums arranged on the structure to form a throat therebetween; a drive system to rotate the drums; a heating system for heating an outer cylindrical surface of the drums; and a collecting system under the throat configured to collect the substance. The apparatus further comprises at least one feed conveyor wherein the at least one feed conveyor includes a feed plate directing a substance to the throat; and wherein the heating system includes at least one heating element in the hollow cavity configured to heat a heating fluid received within the drums. The system is further characterized by an embodiment wherein the at least one heating element is an electrically powered resistive element and wherein each of the drums has a plurality of the electrically powered resistive elements, the plurality of the electrically powered resistive elements being circumferentially distributed.

The present invention refers to an automatic grain processing apparatus comprising, in an integrated manner, that is, in a single apparatus, the following units: a cleaning unit (2); a drying unit comprising a dryer (18), a grain weighing and classification unit; and a grain packaging and labelling unit. The present invention also refers to a grain integrity monitoring and tracking system, comprising one or a plurality of sensors arranged in a package and configured to measure the properties, such as temperature and/or moisture and/or pressure and/or vacuum of the packaged grains, together with the location of the load; and at least one communication module configured to receive the data from one or a plurality of sensors and configured to transmit and store the information from said one or a plurality of sensors in a cloud or any high-performance repository. Said sensors arranged in the package (34) can identify exactly how, when and where the load, that is, the packaged grains, is stored, the temperature, vacuum and pressure conditions of the grains, and also provide agile location responses for monitoring by the end client.

A device for industrial drying of a suspension or solution containing a solid material is provided, comprising a rotatably mounted cylinder having electrically conductive properties and comprising a surface for receiving the suspension or solution, and an inductor adapted to heat the cylinder inductively. The inductive heating causes that the suspension or solution received on the surface of the rotatably mounted cylinder dries and the solid material is left. Furthermore, further devices, a system, a device package, and a method for industrial drying of a suspension or solution are introduced.

A method of drying a substance, the method comprising the steps of distributing the substance on a first belt having a side adapted to receive the substance; urging the substance via the side of the first belt towards at least two adjacent sections of an exterior circumferential surface of at least one drum rotatable about a central axis; heating the substance on the first belt via a plurality of heating devices arranged proximate to and about each said section of the drum to heat the substance to remove fluids from the substance; and separately controlling the heating devices proximate to each said section of the drum to heat the substance at different heating temperatures at each section thereof while traveling on the first belt around the drum.

The present invention relates to combined cooker and dryer apparatus to use for drying material, such as raw material for producing fish or meat meal. The device of the present invention provides a cooker and a dryer apparatus with disks and scrapers for heat exchange and evaporation of the water phase from any material.
