Traditional gas grain dryers
Most grain dryers currently on the market use gas (typically NG or often bottled LPG gas).

DRYMAX describes its unique ‘forcefield’ technology as radio frequency’ drying. At first that may sound like a giant microwave oven—the same technology used to pop popcorn, but it’s not. I interviewed company founder Kevin Eichhorn to find out more about ‘forcefield’ technology, how it works, and what are its potential advantages.
