InnoDryer, Industrial Dryer Using Microwave Technology
Our industrial microwave dryer, InnoDryer, uses volumetric heating to process high-value products with precision and efficiency.
With instant start-up and no warm-up time, our microwave systems maximize throughput, reduce energy consumption, and offer selective and homogeneous heating- whether as a standalone process or as a final drying step.
Two drying systems tailored to your needs:
InnoDryer Flex: High-capacity continuous production line
InnoDryer Batch: Low-capacity or occasional processing
Overall, our dryer range covers processing capacities from 10 kW up to 300 kW, with moisture residual values below 10%.

Still have questions about microwave drying technology?
Find answers to the most frequently asked questions below about InnoDryer.
Conventional drying methods transfer heat from the surface to the core of the material, often resulting in thermal gradients, longer processing times and less homogeneous drying.
Microwave drying relies on volumetric heating: energy is absorbed directly by the material according to its dielectric properties. This enables faster drying, improved uniformity and better control of residual moisture.
By heating the material throughout its volume, microwave energy accelerates moisture migration while reducing the risk of surface overheating.
The result is a faster, more homogeneous and more energy-efficient drying process with improved product quality and excellent repeatability.
Depending on the material and process conditions, the InnoDryer can achieve residual moisture levels as low as 2%, delivering lower moisture content than many comparable industrial drying technologies.
Engineered to maximize energy absorption directly by the product, the InnoDryer benefits from more than 45 years of Sairem expertise in microwave and radio frequency technologies.
This experience is reflected in every system design, ensuring optimized energy efficiency, reduced operating costs and superior drying performance.
Thanks to precise process control and highly repeatable drying performance, the InnoDryer minimizes moisture variations from batch to batch.
For identical products, this consistency also helps maintain stable final product weight, improve process control and increase overall profitability.
Yes. The InnoDryer can operate as a standalone industrial dryer or be integrated as a complementary or final drying stage within an existing production line.
SAIREM designs customized systems adapted to material properties, production requirements and process objectives.
The InnoDryer is suitable for drying a wide range of high-value industrial materials, including powders, ceramics, ores, composite materials and many other applications.
