Invitation to the 12th Asia-Pacific Drying Conference & The 20th National Drying Conference

Drying is one of the important processes in many industrial productions, and is of great significance for ensuring commodity production, national health, and promoting the realization of the carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals. The Asia-Pacific Drying Conference (ADC) is one of the important international conferences in the drying industry.

The first ADC was held in Bali, Indonesia in 1999, and has been held every two years since then. The ADC provides a multidisciplinary, high-level communication and achievement display platform for scholars around the world, especially scholars in the Asia-Pacific region. The China Drying Conference (CDC) is the highest-level and largest academic event in the field of drying in China. It was founded in 1975 and is held every two years. So far, 19 sessions have been held. Over the years, the CDC has been committed to the exchange of drying scientific and technological achievements and the dissemination of new technologies in the Chinese academia and industry, and to improving the scientific and technological level of Chinese drying industry.

The 12th Asia-Pacific Drying Conference and The 20th National Drying Conference, jointly hosted by China Agricultural University and Changzhou Fanqun Drying Equipment Co., Ltd., will be held in Changzhou, China’s Drying Capital, from October 24 to 27, 2025.

The theme of ADC&CDC2025 is “Green Intelligence Promotes the Development of New Quality Productivity in the Drying Industry”, aiming to gather the latest scientific and technological frontiers and corporate innovation achievements in the drying field in China and the Asia-Pacific region. Scientists and engineers from academia and industry around the world will gather together to review the history, examine the present, and look forward to the future, so as to promote the high-quality development of the drying industry in China and the Asia-Pacific region.
