Integrated faucet and dryer with recirculating flow

A sink system comprising:

• a sink deck having a sink opening and an outer shell, the sink deck being separated from a sink basin region of a sink basin by a vent ring,
• a sink basin disposed within the outer shell, the sink basin defining a sink basin region and a plenum region, the plenum region separated from the sink basin region by the vent ring,
• a plenum cavity formed between an internal surface of the outer shell and the plenum region;
• the vent ring having a vent with an associated opening, the opening exposed to the sink basin region and to an area underneath the sink deck, the opening allowing a flow of air therethrough;
• and
• a dryer configured to direct forced air through a dryer exhaust port into the sink basin region of the sink basin, the dryer is positioned relative to the sink basin region and the vent such that the forced air from the dryer is directed through the dryer exhaust port into the sink basin region and then into vent.
