Abstract

A method for drying moist material includes supplying the moist material to a feeding unit of a drying plant through a supply pipe; depositing the moist material on a drying surface, while, based on a parameter that depends on the water content of the moist material passing by a sensor at least one of the supply pipe and the feeding unit, continuously regulating a quantity of the moist material being deposited on the drying surface per unit of time; and drying the moist material on the drying surface. A related drying plant dries moist material using a sensor for sensing a parameter of the moist material supplied and varying a quantity of the moist material being deposited on the drying surface per unit of time.
