The Delta T moisture/dryer control system (more info) consistently reduces the moisture variation of various mineral products from 30% to a much as 45%. The Delta T is based on a unique “inside-the-dryer” moisture sensor consisting of two temperature sensor and a mathematical model. This reduction in variation enables the mean moisture content to be increased thus increasing production, reducing unit energy consumption and improving product quality. Capital payback is less than one year.

The Delta T effectively replaces: (1) the exhaust temperature moisture control method (more info) that is based on a poor correlation between dryer exhaust gas temperature and the product moisture content exiting dryers such as flash, rotary and spray; and (2) control systems using conventional moisture sensors located downstream from the dryer whose long dead times produce wide variations in the exiting product moisture content.
