1. A method for on-line moisture determination and control in an industrial process for direct control of a drying process based on real-time measurement of moisture content of material being dried, said method comprising:

  • (a) sensing moisture levels at one or more locations through dedicated sensing means to obtain sensed information;

    (b) collecting and collating the sensed information obtained in real time and in dynamic mode and transmitting the sensed information to a control means that is connected at one end to a moisture control mechanism;

    (c) processing the sensed information in the control means in real time to enable real time regulation of moisture content in the industrial process; and

    (d) wherein either the drying process is hastened to ensure greater drying or additional moisture is input based on processing of the sensed information in the control means.
