Intermittent Drying of Beans in a Spouted Bed
Carioca beans are a highly nutritious grain, in terms of the amount of protein, iron and potassium as well as carbohydrates and fiber and as a source of vitamins. The moisture content of recently picked beans is too high for good preservation and storage, resulting in the need for drying before packaging. In this work, the drying of Carioca beans in a laboratory scale spouted bed under intermit...
متن کاملDrying of calcium carbonate in a batch spouted bed dryer: optimization and kinetics modeling
In the present work, the drying of calcium carbonate in a batch spouted bed dryer with inert particles has been investigated experimentally. The effect of several operating parameters including air temperature (90, 100, and 110 ˚C), air velocity (Ums, 1.2 Ums, and 1.5 Ums), and dry solid mass (5, 10, 20 g) has been studied. The Taguchi method has been applied to determine the optimal parameters...
متن کاملStudy on Drying Kinetics of Paddy Rice: Intermittent Drying
The intermittent drying characteristics of an Iranian popular paddy rice variety were experimentally investigated to determine the drying kinetics and obtain the effective moisture diffusivity. A lab-scale fluidized bed dryer was designed and constructed to enable obtaining the required results while controlling critical drying parameters. The effects of drying temperature and tempering per...
متن کاملMathematical Modelling for Hydrodynamic Studies of Spouted Bed
The hydrodynamic behaviour of the spouted bed has been studied by considering the different system parameters (viz. static bed height, spout diameter, particle size, gas velocity and particle density). Experiments were carried out using a Perspex column of 4 inch diameter. Attempts have been taken to develop correlations for the bed expansion / fluctuation ratios by varying different system par...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of the Drying Kinetics of Corn in a Packed and Fluidized Bed
In this paper, experimental data on the drying kinetics of corn in a packed and fluidized bed are presented. Experimental research was conducted on a laboratory apparatus. Corn was used as a material because of its significance in agriculture and the food industry. An analysis of the influence of the operational parameters (the drying medium velocity i. e. the flu...
