dew pointTemperature at which the air becomes saturated with water vapour. At temperatures below the dew point, the water vapour condenses out of the air as droplets.

This can be accomplished in standard dryers at 150 to 175 C (302 to 347 F) with a dewpoint of-29 to -40 C (-20 to -40 F) for 4 to 6 hr. 1]), steep 850-500 hPa lapse rates, and relatively moist conditions below the melting level (as evidenced by smaller dewpoint temperature depressions below the melting level). A dual bed is said to provide continuous operation to maintain a dewpoint level of up to -76[degrees]F (-60[degrees]C). |
