This paper describes the modelling and the PID control of a drying process. The plant uses a co-current rotary dryer to evaporate moisture of a waste product generated by olive-oil mills, called alpeorujo or two phase cake. The paper shows the development of a model based upon first principles combined with experimental results. A control strategy has been tested under simulation based on PID controllers for the main loops in this process.
