An apparatus for separating water from a wet material is provided according to the present invention. The apparatus includes an air lock feeder, a venturi, a plurality of centrifugal accelerators, at least one blower, at least one vapor vent, and at least one product outlet. The air lock feeder is constructed to receive air from a feed blower and move the wet material as entrained material. The venturi is operatively connected to the air lock feeder and is constructed to receive the entrained material and to accelerate the entrained material. The plurality of centrifugal accelerators are operatively connected to the venturi to receive the entrained material and accelerate the flow of the entrained material. The at least one accelerator blower is provided for accelerating the flow of the wet material within the plurality of centrifugal accelerators. The at least one vapor vent is operatively connected to the plurality of centrifugal accelerators for removing water vapor. The at least one product outlet is provided for removing dried material from the plurality of centrifugal accelerators. A method for separating water from a wet material is provided. |
