[0042] As shown in the drawings, Figs. 1-3 The embodiment of the novel steam process type drying machine provided by the present application at least comprises:

[0043] A roller, one end of which is provided with a feeding port, and the other end is provided with a discharging port.

[0044] A driving device for driving the roller to rotate.
