Gryphon Environmental Inc.
About
Gryphon Environmental, based in Owensboro, Kentucky, manufactures the Gryphon Dryer, a patented medium-temperature thermal belt drying system for biosolids, sludge, biomass, and food processing byproducts. The Gryphon Dryer produces Class A biosolids compliant with EPA 40 CFR 503 regulations, achieving up to 90% total solids in the dried product and reducing disposal volume by 70-75%. The system is built in modular, repeatable segments available in 3-foot, 5-foot, and 10-foot wide configurations, allowing facilities to match capacity to their space constraints and expand incrementally as throughput needs grow. A defining engineering feature is the closed-loop recirculating air process, which improves thermal efficiency, lowers energy consumption, and can reduce or eliminate the need for air exhaust permitting. Wet feed material enters the dryer directly without requiring sludge pumps or extruders. Each unit is equipped with full PLC/HMI automation and self-monitoring diagnostics for continuous operation with minimal operator attention, and the mechanical design is serviceable with basic hand tools. Gryphon serves four primary markets: municipal wastewater treatment, food and beverage processing, agriculture and biomass conversion, and mining and minerals processing. The company provides pre-purchase engineering studies, custom system design, installation guidance, hands-on operator training, and ongoing technical support.
