General discussion - conventional and novel drying concepts: need and opportunities for advanced drying technologies; classification and selection criteria - conventional versus novel technologies; innovation and trends in drying technologies. Selected advanced drying technologies: drying on inert particles; impinging stream drying; drying in pulsed fluid beds; superheated steam drying; airless drying; drying in mobilized bed; drying with shock waves; vacu jet drying; contact-sorption drying; sonic drying; pulse-combustion drying; heat-pump drying. Selected techniques for drying and dewatering: Carver-Greenfield process; drying in plasma torch; displacement drying; vapour drying; slush drying; atmospheric freeze-drying. Hybrid drying technologies: radio-frequency drying with 50-ohm technology; radio-frequency-assisted heat-pump drying; radio-frequency-vacuum drying; microwave-convective drying; vacuum microwave drying; filtermat drying; spray-fluid bed-vibrated fluid bed drying; combined filtration and drying; other hybrid technologies. Miscellaneous topics: special drying techniques. Appendix: list of symbols.
