Abstract (en)

[origin: US5509216A] An apparatus for drying particulate material which has at least one container for the particulate material, which container is connected in a closed air circulating system with an air drying device and a heater. Dry, heated air is moved through the particulate material by a blower in order to extract moisture from the particulate material. The moisture-laden air is discharged from the particulate material container, then dried again and heated by the heater and then is supplied again to the container for the particulate material. A connection for introducing the dry air is provided in the upper region of the particulate material container and leads into a duct which is arranged centrally within the container and which is equipped at its lower end with an air distributor. The duct which extends inside the particulate material container has a heat-insulating construction.
