Rotary hot air dryers are rugged, high-capacity systems designed for drying free-flowing solids using direct heated air. With over 47 years of experience, IPP offers surplus, secondhand and used rotary hot air dryers sourced from 20 complete plant sites and stocked as part of its inventory of more than 15,000 ready-to-ship process systems. These dryers are ideal for high-throughput operations that require reliable moisture removal and long service life.

Rotary hot air dryers work by feeding material into a rotating cylindrical drum while hot air is passed through, either co-current or counter-current to material flow. The tumbling action exposes all surfaces to heat, making them ideal for uniform drying of granular or coarse materials at scale.
