Abstract: A particulate dryer is disclosed in which upwardly moving hot gases contact downwardly moving particulate matter. The particulate matter is supported by rotating trays which, due to the absence of support at their outer ends at selected loci are caused to tilt downward to effect passage of the particulate matter downwardly through the dryer.
