<p>An apparatus (10) for drying a substance is disclosed. Apparatus (10) includes a pair of side-by-side cylinders (12). Drums (14) are concentrically journalled within cylinders (12). Rows of slightly spiralled chains (40) are attached to drums (14). As the drying substance moves under the influence of gravity and the velocity of a hot gas, it also is forced centrifugally outwardly so as to pass through aperture (25) to impact oncoming drying substance. The drying substance is pulverized and the drying function is accomplished more efficiently.</p> |
