Patlıcan taze tüketiminin yanı sıra kurutularak da yoğun bir şekilde kullanılmaktadır. Kurutma işlemi ile daha uzun süre muhafaza edilerek dört mevsim tüketim imkânı sağlanabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada patlıcan etüvde, laboratuvar tipi konvektif kurutucuda (LTKK) 40, 50, 60, 70ºC sıcaklıklarda ve gölgede önemli kalite parametrelerinden olan renk kriterleri kuruma kinetiği belirlenmiştir. öncesi ür...

In this study rhubarb stem slices were dried as single layers with thickness of 3 mm in the inlet air temperature range of 50-70  and air velocity of 1 ± 0.2 m/s in a laboratory scale cabinet dryer. The effect of drying air temperature on the drying characteristics was determined and the relationship between the drying parameters with temperature and moisture content was examined. Moisture tran...

In the present study combined infrared and hot air dryer to dry a thin layer of pomegranate seeds. Three different levels power, namely: 200, 250 300 W three exposure distance between heater samples dying are 20, 15 10 cm with temperature 40 oC velocity 1.5 m/s were studied. Drying time as affected by power distance, compatibility experimental data some drying models, effective diffusivity Deff...

The effect of microwave-assisted convective air-drying on the drying kinetics and quality of mango was evaluated. Both microwave power and pretreatment time were significant factors but the effect of power was more profound. Increase in microwave power and pretreatment time had a positive effect on drying time. The nonenzymatic browning index of the fresh samples increased from 0.29 to 0.60 whi...

Bu çalışmada farklı sıcaklıklarda (60, 70, 80 °C) fırında ve mikrodalga güç seviyelerinde (180, 300, 450 Watt) kurutmanın Antalya koşullarında yetiştirilen hasat edilen hibiskus çanak yapraklarının kuruma karakteristikleri bazı fizikokimyasal özellikleri üzerine etkisi araştırılmıştır. Örneklerin kurutma karakteristiğinin değerlendirilmesinde on üç model kullanılmıştır. Hibiskus verilerine en i...

the present study investigated the influence of air temperature and velocity on the drying kinetics and specific energy consumption during fluidized bed drying of soybean at 80, 100, 120 and 140ºc and airflow rates of 1.8, 3.1 and 4.5 m s-1. six mathematical models for describing the fluidized bed drying behavior were investigated. the value of the drying rate coefficient (k) increased with inc...

ABSTRACT In the present study, objective was to fit different models experimental data of drying tamarind (Tamarindus indica L.) seeds and select best model, determine effective diffusion coefficient, activation energy thermodynamic properties for process during at temperatures. The experiment carried out Laboratory Post-Harvest Vegetable Products Instituto Federal Goiano (Federal Institute Goi...

HIGHLIGHTS Drying kinetics of shrimp shell and crab exoskeleton were obtained experimentally The Page Midilli models showed the best fitting results to simulate experimental data Third-order for both materials using stepwise fit method ANNs performance describe drying curves Modeling process can be simulated successfully by multivariable approaches.

Solar drying is affordable, requiring low energy and an eco-friendly method. Thus, the present paper studies efficiency characteristics of indirect solar convective in fruits Arbutus unedo L. as well its effects on fruit phenolic compounds. The samples were dried at 60 °C, 70 80 °C. Phenolic compounds investigated using a Liquid Chromatography platform. Experimental results revealed that effect...
