An Investigation of Mass Transfer Phenomena during Osmotic Dehydration of Orange Slices
Authors
Abstract:
The osmotic dehydration causes water removing from food and also a soluble solid uptake into thefoodstuffs. However, large penetration of solute into the food becomes a major problem in osmoticdehydration.Pre-coating the food to be dehydrated with an artificial, edible barrier was also explored as a wayto efficiently hinder solute penetration. In this study the effect of edible coating (CMC),concentration of sucrose solution (50 and 60%), temperature (35, 45 ºC) of Thomson orange, as amodel fruit were studied on the factors affected of mass Transfer phenomena during osmoticdehydration. The results showed that the soluble solid gain(SG) , water loss(WL) and productivityratio(WL/SG) rise with increase of temperature and solute concentration. Coating has affectedsignificantly on the productivity ratio

full textFactors affecting mass transfer during osmotic dehydration of fruits
Research applications of osmotic dehydration to food processing in technology and in component transfer mechanisms are being carried out in several countries. Osmotic dehydration is a traditional process applied to food dewatering. It leads to attractive products that are ready to eat or can be applied as a pretreatment to the next process such as drying or freezing. The new osmotically dehydra...

Background and Objectives: A fairly large amount of oil is absorbed to the food during deep frying. The aim of this study was to reduce the oil absorption of eggplant slices during frying by using osmotic dehydration pretreatment. Materials and Methods: Using maltodextrin (0, 20, 40% w/v) and sodium chloride (salt, 0, 10, 20% w/v), the effect of osmotic dehydration on different properties of e...

in the current research the artificial neural network models were used for predicting mass transfer kinetics of osmotically dehydrated kiwifruit. osmotic dehydration operations were performed in sucrose solution with concentrations of 30, 40, 50 and 60% at temperatures of 20, 40 and 60°c for 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes. multi-layer neural network with 3 inputs (operating conditions) was develope...
full textMass Transfer During the Pre-Usage Dehydration of Polyvinyl Alcohol Hydrogel Wound Dressings
Nowadays, hydrogels are widely used as wound dressings in biomedical applications. Similar to other types of the moist (wet) wound dressings, it is necessary to have sufficient information about their dehydration kinetics during the pre-usage period (e.g. storage duration) and also the wound healing process. In this work, hydrogel wound dressings based on polyvinyl alcohol were prepared by...
