Fuel Ethanol:

The Delta T moisture/dryer control system (more info) consistently reduces the moisture variation of dry distilled grains with solubles (DDGS) exiting ring and rotary dryers by at least 30%, and sometimes more. 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 substantially less than one year.

The Delta T effectively replaces: (1) the exhaust temperature moisture control method that is based on a poor correlation between dryer exhaust gas temperature; (more info) and (2) control systems using conventional moisture content sensors exiting suspension dryers such as ring, flash, rotary and spray.
