Several methods can be employed for thermal drying, including:
Oven Drying: This is the most common method, where the catalyst is placed in an oven at a controlled temperature and atmosphere. Microwave Drying: Utilizes microwave radiation to heat and remove moisture more rapidly than conventional methods. Vacuum Drying: Performed under reduced pressure, this method is useful for drying heat-sensitive materials. Fluidized Bed Drying: Involves passing a gas through a bed of particles to achieve uniform drying.
