## Abstract Experiments on the drying of high moisture municipal solid waste (MSW) were carried out in a muffle incinerator, and a series of lostβmass rate curves were obtained. The results show that lost mass is already over 80% for a castock, but only 30% for a potato block after 25 minutes when
The method of spatial averaging is apphed to derive a macroscopic form of Fick's law for unsteady diffusion through a rigid porous medium The validity of this form is found to be restricted by the requirements that diffusion is quasi-steady on a pore scale and that interphase mass transfer rates dep
