Characteristics of Timbers Dried Using Kiln Drying and Radio Frequency-Vacuum Drying Systems [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2017 Heavy hardwoods are difficult-to-dry timbers as they are prone to checking and internal stresses when dried using a conventional kiln drying system. These timbers are usually dried naturally to reach 15% to 19% moisture content with an acceptable defects.

Phytosanitary Efficacy Of Kiln Drying (Pekid) [PDF]
, 2010 The aim of the project was to determine whether harmful organisms related to wood would be killed by kiln drying processes according to the requirements of the EU-Directive 2000/29/EC. The reduction of the moisture content to less than 20 % should be carried out using different temperature regimes.
