With 15-minute drying cycle, Model DTI-223 evaporates 1,121 lb of moisture every hour. System moves products through 3 temperature-controlled zones on polypropylene mesh belt. Each zone, programmable from 180–400°F, utilizes 1 full modulating natural gas burner, 2 circulation fans, and 1 exhaust fan. Providing useable dimensions of 3 ft 2 in. x 98 ft 4 in. x 6 in., oven is controlled by PLC and uses variable frequency drive to adjust speed of conveying system.

Grist: We told you recently that wind turbines kept the heaters working in Texas during a cold snap that shut down several natural-gas power plants. And now we have similar superhero news from that other great renewable energy source - the sun. The San Jose Mercury News reports that solar energy is helping to meet California`s power needs amid a drought that has caused hydroelectric supplies to shrivel: Despite last week`s showers, the lack of rain in California this winter is having a dire impact...
What Happens When the World Dries Out

Climate News Network: A warmer, drier world will be bad news for those people who already live on the edge. Higher temperatures will do more than evaporate the soil moisture: they will alter the natural soil chemistry as well. Manuel Delgado-Baquerizo of the Universidad Pablo de Olavide, in Seville, Spain, and fellow scientists report in Nature that they looked at soil samples from 224 dryland ecosystem plots in every continent except Antarctica. Drylands matter: they account for more than 40 percent of the planet's...
Deforestation Dries Up Dams Threatening Hydropower
2013-05-24 20:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
SciDevNet: Deforestation may lead to electricity shortages in tropical rainforest regions that rely heavily on hydropower, as fewer trees mean less rainfall for hydropower generation, a study shows. For example, if deforestation continues, one of the world's largest dam projects in Brazil will deliver around a third less energy than is currently estimated, according to the research, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) last week (13 May). Researchers had presumed that cutting...

Canada: Cracks in the house? Climate change dries the ground we stand on

Ottawa Citizen: We learn from Saturdays paper that carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, is at its highest concentration in the atmosphere in three million years. Over shouts of Were No. 1!, it might be opportune to mention an unexplored consequence of climate change: our houses are cracking up. Ottawa is built, with some exceptions, on a vast stretch of what the experts call sensitive clay soil, usually referred locally as leda, the old basin of the Champlain Sea. During a prolonged drought in...
