Can Drying and Moisture Control System
A heating system for use with a can dryer or oven includes a gas burner, an electrical heating element, a heating chamber structured to heat cans using air heated by the gas burner and/or the electrical heating element, a circulation system structured to move air from the gas burner and the electrical heating element to the heating chamber, and a control system structured to selectively control the gas burner and the electrical heating element to switch between a first mode where the gas burner and the electrical heating element are active and both heat air provided to the heating chamber and in a second mode where the gas burner is inactive and the electrical heating element is active.
DISTRIBUTION RING FOR FUEL IN A BURNER, BURNER HAVING SUCH A DISTRIBUTION RING AND DRYING DRUM HAVING SUCH A BURNER
A distribution ring for fuel in a burner (7) includes a hollow body (21) which is configured to be annular with respect to a longitudinal axis (22), a feed spigot (23) which is connected to the hollow body (21) and is intended for feeding the fuel into the hollow body (21), and a plurality of discharge spigots (25) for discharging the fuel from the hollow body (21) to the burner (7). The discharge spigots (25) are each arranged externally at the hollow body (21) in the radial direction of the longitudinal axis (22).
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DRYING USING HYDROGEN COMBUSTION EXHAUST
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for drying materials using hydrogen combustion exhaust. The system generally includes a hydrogen generator, a burner, and a drying chamber. The method generally includes burning hydrogen and directing the combustion exhaust to a drying chamber, wherein the heat from the combustion exhaust dries the material.

Apparatus and method for continuously drying bulk goods, in particular wood chips and/or wood fibers comprising a hot gas cyclone
An apparatus and a method is provided for continuously drying bulk goods, in particular wood fibers and/or wood chips, in a dryer, wherein the drying vapors are led to a dryer circuit, in which the drying vapors are indirectly heated via a heat-exchanger and are conducted to the dryer again.
Device for controlling the temperature of objects
A device for controlling the temperature of, and in particular for drying, objects, in particular vehicle bodies, having a housing which integrates a temperature-control chamber that includes at least one air outlet and at least one air inlet. The temperature-control chamber is assigned at least one heating unit in which it is possible to generate a hot primary gas flow and to which it is possible to supply, from the air outlet, air that is to be heated. The heating unit includes a heat exchanger device into which the hot primary gas can be guided and in which it is possible to heat air from the temperature-control chamber using hot primary gas, which air can be supplied, as heated recirculation air, in a circuit via the at least one air inlet back to the temperature-control chamber. The heating unit includes at least a first and a second flow outlet via which heated recirculation air leaves the heating unit.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REMOVING DRILLING FLUID FROM DRILL CUTTINGS USING DIRECT HEAT
Systems and methods for removing drilling fluid from wet drill cuttings are described. According to some embodiments, the method comprises, at a pressure above atmospheric pressure: combusting a rich air-fuel mixture at a rich combustion temperature, thereby producing a generally low oxygen, inert rich exhaust; providing said rich exhaust to the wet drill cuttings to contact and directly heat the wet drill cuttings by convection so that at least a portion of the drilling fluid is evaporated therefrom and at least some dry solid drill cuttings remain; condensing at least a portion of the evaporated drilling fluid to produce condensed drilling fluid; and separately recovering the condensed drilling fluid and the dry solid drill cuttings.
Apparatus and method for continuously drying bulk goods, in particular wood chips and/or wood fibers comprising a solid fired hot gas generator
An apparatus and a method is provided for continuously drying bulk goods, in particular wood fibers and/or wood chips, in a dryer, wherein the drying vapors are led to a dryer circuit, in which the drying vapors are indirectly heated via a heat-exchanger and are conducted to the dryer again.
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DRYING MATERIAL AND ASPHALT MIXING FACILITY HAVING SUCH AN APPARATUS
An apparatus for drying material for an asphalt mixing facility includes a rotary kiln rotatably drivable about an axis of rotation, in which the material is dried, wherein the rotary kiln has a material inlet and a material outlet, a heating unit coupled to the rotary kiln for feeding heat to the rotary kiln, wherein the heating unit is designed with a burner which has a burner housing having a longitudinal axis, an air duct arranged at the burner housing for feeding air, a swirling element for swirling the air in the burner housing relative to the longitudinal axis, a hydrogen gas line connected to the burner for feeding hydrogen gas into the burner, wherein a hydrogen gas nozzle is connected to the hydrogen gas line for discharging the hydrogen gas, a burner head arranged at the burner housing for generating a burner flame.
