Modeling of drying kinetics of ripe plantain (Musa paradisiaca) chips in a forced convection tunnel
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work the mathematical modeling of drying process plantain (Musa paradisiaca), with hot air in a tunnel under forced flow conditions is presented. The temperature was 60 °C at velocity 3.0 m/s. geometric form product cuts considered: round slices 4.0 cm diameter and 1.5 mm thickness. time for 300 min. numerical model obtained kinetics logarithmic one. Organoleptic properties were used to evaluate quality productor final.

Biochemical Effects in Normal and Stone Forming Rats Treated with the Ripe Kernel Juice of Plantain (musa Paradisiaca)
The effect of Musa paradisiaca stem kernel juice was investigated in experimental urolithiatic rats. Stone forming rats exhibited a significant elevation in the activities of two oxalate synthesizing enzymes - Glycollic acid oxidase and Lactate dehydrogenase. Deposition and excretion of stone forming constituents in kidney and urine were also increased in these rats. The enzyme activities and t...
متن کاملEvaluation of wound healing activity of extracts of plantain banana (Musa sapientum var. paradisiaca) in rats.
Plantain banana (M. sapientum var. paradisiaca, MS) has been shown to possess ulcer healing activity. The present work with plantain banana was undertaken with the premise that the drug promoting ulcer healing could have effect on wound healing also. Wound healing activity of MS was studied in terms of (i) percent wound contraction, epithelization period and scar area; (ii) wound breaking stren...

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...
