In the dehydration of gypsum to the hemihydrate in a sealable indirectly heated vessel, the vessel is alternately sealed for at least three minutes and then vented, until the desired dehydration has occurred. Venting is generally effected at 30 to 40 p.s.i.g. and temperatures at about 300 DEG F.; the vessel is preferably resealed before the temperature drops below 212 DEG F. and the product is finally dried by heating to 320 to 340 DEG F. The apparatus employed is the same as that disclosed in Specifications 866,126, 897,923 and 897,925. As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, a drum 7 is supported by and rotated with an axial pipe 21 which rests on rollers 5 carried by support 2. Inside the drum the tube 21 carries a concertinalike arrangement of annular dished members 26 peripherally joined to form a series of chambers communicating with the interior of pipe 21 through perforations 25.
