Abstract: A drying system for bladder-style personal hydration systems is comprised of an air conduit, a system for forcing air through the conduit, and a method of dispersing the air into the bladder. The bladder from the personal hydration system (such as a CamelBak®) is placed over the conduit, and air is forced into the bladder and the drinking tube to dry it. This would provide a faster and potentially microbiologically safer method of drying the bladder as compared to traditional methods.
