Although it is difficult to determine the moisture progression of fluidized bed-steam drying processes, temperature progressions can easily be determined. In the experiments, a link between the temperature and moisture progression, as well as between all other relevant drying parameters such as gas mass flow, gas temperature or particle mass is established. With the help of modeling based on physical laws, the mechanisms of fluidized bed drying with superheated steam as fluidizing and drying medium are resolved.
