Pick out the wrong statement pertaining to the rotary dryer.

Hold up of a rotary drier is defined as the fraction of the dryer volume occupied by the solid at any instant. The best performance for rotary drier is obtained, when the hold up is in the range of 0.
Rotary dryer is suitable for drying sticky material
Flights (located in the inside shell of rotary dryer) lift the material being dried and shower it down through the current of hot air/gases. It extends from the wall to a distance which is about 8-12%

Mass Transfer
The relation among various mass transfer co-efficients (M.T.C) for ideal gases is given by (where, Kc & Km are M.T.C. for equimolar counter diffusion with concentration & mole fraction respectively as the driving force. and, Kp = M.T.C. for diffusion of a gas through a stagnant inert gas with pressure as driving force.)

Kc = Kp = Km
Kc = Kp . RT = Km . RT/p
Kc = Kp/RT = Km . RT/P
None of these
