About the event​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Wageningen University & Research and the EFCE Working party on Drying are proud to announce that the 9th European Drying conference (Eurodrying 2025) will be held from 6 to 9 July in Wageningen, The Netherlands. We welcome you to the city of Wageningen and its international University Campus.

Already being the 9th edition, Eurodrying aims to expand on the positive interaction within the drying community and continue the dialogue between both drying experts in academia and industry. Together we can advance knowledge, solve problems, and innovate solutions for drying and dewatering applications.

The conference includes a scientific program with keynote lectures of prominent researchers in the drying community and plenary presentations and poster sessions on cutting-edge research covering a variety of drying-related topics. Industrial drying experts are explicitly invited to present their latest innovations & developments in the drying technology field as well. The conference will offer the possibility to visit research & industrial equipment manufacturing facilities and various companies will present themselves via exhibitions.

After a successful 8th edition of the European Drying conference in Łódź, Poland (2023), this biyearly event provides the ideal platform to connect and stay informed about the latest progress in the field of drying and dewatering.
