Abstract
Drying removes water and other liquids from gases, liquids, and solids. The term is most commonly used, however, to describe the removal of water or solvent from solids by thermal means. Dehumidification refers to the drying of a gas, usually by condensation or by absorption with a drying agent. Distillation, particularly fractional distillation, is used to dry liquids.
