The predrying of bark before combustion in a bark-fuel oil boiler using boiler flue gas resulted in reduction of the consumption of supplementary fuel oil and improvement of the combustion. A computer simulation and dryer design program was written to aid additional work in the area of predryer-boiler systems.
