Low-Temperature Drying of Slurry Raw Materials with KENKI DRYER
KENKI DRYER is an internationally patented low-temperature steam dryer designed to dry even the most adhesive, sticky, and high-moisture slurry materials smoothly and efficiently. Its unique mechanism prevents clogging inside the dryer, ensuring stable, continuous, and uniform drying—even for liquid or difficult-to-handle materials.
Using saturated steam as the sole heat source, KENKI DRYER dries materials safely and evenly at low temperatures without altering their components. The system combines conduction heat transfer and hot air circulation, achieving exceptional drying efficiency, hygiene, and safety.
Unlike conventional dryers or box-type systems, KENKI DRYER enables fully automatic, 24-hour operation with minimal maintenance and low running costs. Its slow rotational speed (under 5 RPM) reduces mechanical wear, ensuring long-term reliability and easy maintenance.
As a CO₂-free and energy-efficient solution, KENKI DRYER supports decarbonization efforts. It uses surplus or existing steam without additional fuel costs and can operate with electric or hydrogen boilers to achieve zero greenhouse gas emissions.
With 11 patents across 8 countries (Japan, Taiwan, USA, France, Germany, UK, Switzerland, and Canada), KENKI DRYER stands out as a proven, innovative drying technology trusted worldwide for slurry drying, sludge drying, organic waste treatment, and upcycling applications.
Choose KENKI DRYER—the world’s most reliable and eco-friendly solution for drying sticky, adhesive, and high-moisture raw materials.

Slurry drying / Brochure
KENKI DRYER which uses International Patented Technology can dry sticky, adhesive and viscous material containing high moisture contents and liquid material that no other company can deal with. It can dry without clogging inside of the dryer and with safe operation which meets no operational trouble. Organic wastes with high moisture contents such as coffee grounds,used tea leaves, soy pulps, livestock excretions, food residues, vegetables, fruits scraps, residues of processed marine product, etc. can be dried smoothly and each of these materials are discharged as valuable product with stable quality after drying.
