As can be seen from the calculations, if it is possible to increase the amount of dehumidified air input per time, that is, if the strength of the closed container allows it, the dehumidification capacity can be improved by increasing the pressure.

However, if the pressure is increased too much, condensed water will form inside the closed container. When processing powder that does not like this, it is necessary to obtain a predetermined degree of dryness by performing the drying process many times at a lower pressure. Further, when the dried powder is discharged from the closed container, it absorbs moisture from the atmosphere, so it is preferable to keep the place where the closed container is installed in a dehumidified atmosphere.
