ABSTRACT:
Particles of tobacco which form a continuous stream are heated during transport through a rotary drum-shaped dryer. The inlet end of the dryer receives a continuous current of heated air whose temperature is constant, and the dryer is heated by internal coils for circulating steam whose pressure is constant. The quantity of tobacco particles in the stream is varied in dependency on deviations of measured final moisture content from a desired final moisture content and/or in dependency on deviations of measured initial moisture content from anticipated initial moisture content.
