Abstract: Drying implements disclosed herein can provide a minimal, collapsible, dish drying pad encased in woven, silicone protection for recently washed kitchenware placed thereon. Such drying implements include a rapid absorption and drying diatomaceous earth panels that causes drain water to rapidly dissipate. This helps to prevent bacteria growth, by eliminating the moist environment where mold thrives. The mesh silicone layer or encasing keeps dishes protected and the kitchen looking fresh and modern. The drying implement shows various improvements for all types of drying jobs from dishes to produce. The drying implement folds upon its connected sections for smaller jobs and for easy storage when not in use.

Abstract: A drying appliance including a drying rack and a rapidly drying absorptive drain tray assembly. Such embodiments further include adaptable and interchangeable accessories for selectable placement and scaling of the size, amount and placement of features for managing the capacity and location of the drying accessories. The drain tray includes an absorptive base. The absorptive base instantly wicks, absorbs, and evaporates water away from the drying kitchenware to lower relative humidity and to prevent mold and bacteria from growing thereon. The drying rack can include a built-in cutting board holder that provides extra space for pots, pans, and bowls. The drying rack can include modern durable steel rails that can be customized for each person's particular needs. The legs of the drying rack can support the absorptive drain tray above the surface of a counter allowing for 360 degree evaporation.

Abstract: Reconfigurable rapid drying absorption mats. Such reconfigurable absorption mats include multiple connectable, disconnectable, and reconfigurable diatomaceous earth absorption substrates that are both sustainable and designed to instantly remove water from the surface thereof. Unlike traditional synthetic and cotton textile mats that absorb moisture and generate bacteria, according to the rapid drying absorption mats disclosed herein the component diatomaceous earth substrates do not produce mold. Such diatomaceous earth absorption mat components can each include connectable and disconnectable rubberized bottom polymer pads or webbing to prevent slipping and enable for drying of each individual diatomaceous earth substrate from multiple surfaces and sides thereof.

Abstract: An absorption mat includes an absorbent substrate including diatomaceous earth and a textile layer for placement upon the absorbent substrate. The absorbent substrate includes diatomaceous earth which draws moisture from the textile layer when placed adjacent to the textile layer. Absorption mats created with a fabric layer from which water is drawn into a diatomaceous earth layer are both sustainable and designed to instantly remove water from the surface thereof. Unlike traditional synthetic mats that absorb moisture and generate bacteria, according to the rapid drying absorption mats disclosed herein do not produce mold. Similar to a natural stone, the diatomaceous earth layer is made from ceramic-like material that holds firm under feet. Such mats can include a rubberized bottom pad to prevent slipping and allow for 360-degree drying.
