A moisture removing device comprising a ceramic shell. The ceramic shell has a plurality of parallel openings. The openings extend along the length of the shell. The openings form elongated surfaces adapted to be contacted by moisture ladened air moving through the openings along a path of travel. Such surfaces have desiccant capabilities for the extraction of moisture from air passed therethrough.

A new and improved ceramic rotor to be used as a media to dry gasses comprising, in combination: a housing having an input area with a first path of travel for receiving moisture-ladened air to be dried and an output area with a second path of travel in a direction opposite from the first path of travel for removing moisture from air partially ladened with moisture with a turnaround zone to direct air from the first path of travel to the second path of travel, the turnaround zone being located in the housing remote from the input area and the output area, the housing having baffles to separate the first path of travel from the second path of travel; a cylindrically shaped shell positioned within the housing having an axis in the plane of the baffles, a plurality of openings extending along the length of the shell, the openings providing elongated surfaces adapted to be contacted by moisture ladened air moving in the first path of travel and by air partially ladened with moisture moving in the second path of travel, such surfaces having desiccant capabilities for the extraction of moisture from air passed therethrough; drive means to rotate the shell about its axis to sequentially move different portions of the cylindrical shell and its openings between the first path of travel and the second path of travel; and a heater located between the shell and input area within the first path of travel.
