ABSTRACT:
An improved cyclone dryer is disclosed, having an outer cylinder, an inner cylinder, and a cone-shaped chamber. The outer cylinder has a tangential airstream orifice for injecting a high-speed stream of material and air, or other gases, into the dryer. The inner cylinder has a plurality of apertures and a plurality of deflectors that deflect air and material into a cavity defined by the inner cylinder and the cone-shaped chamber. The cone-shaped chamber, the outer cylinder, and the inner cylinder define an annular air chamber. An exhaust assembly is attached proximate the inner and outer cylinders, and is in fluid communication with the cavity.
