Rotary Dryers fall into three main categories:

• Rotary Cascade Dryers, where material is lifted and cascaded through a hot air stream.
  
• Rotary Louvre Dryers, where the hot air stream is passed through a 'rolling' bed of material.
  
• Rotary Steam Tube Dryers, where material is lifted and cascaded through a rotating steam tube bundle
  

Externally, all Rotary Dryers have a similar construction, consisting of a rotating shell fitted with tyres running on a set of support rollers, with a chain or spur gear ring drive.
