Dielectric heating is one of the most promising alternatives to conventional thermal treatment
of fluid foods. Higher thermal efficiency and better heating uniformity of radio frequency and …

Fifth generation networks (5G) will be associated with a partial shift to higher carrier
frequencies, including wavelengths comparable in size to insects. This may lead to higher …

A laboratory-scale hot air convective dryer (HACD) was used to dry date fruits surplus at
0.5±0.02 kg kg− 1 to a safe moisture level of 0.35 kg kg− 1 under drying temperatures (T) of …

This study investigated the variations of the dielectric properties of 80 mature
'Shahong'peaches with skin (intact peaches) and without skin (peach pulp) over the …

This study aims to develop models for predicting soluble solids content (SSC) and soluble
sugar content of three different pear cultivars. The samples' SSC and soluble sugar content …

Dielectric constant (ε′) and loss factor (ε ″) of lentil (grain and flour) and chickpea (split
and flour) were determined over four moisture content (MC), seven temperature, and seven …

Tomato-based processed foods are a key component of modern diets, usually combined
with salt and olive oil in different ratios. For the design of radiofrequency (RF) and …

Background Fructose and single cell protein are important products for the food market.
Abundant amounts of low-grade dates worldwide are annually wasted. In this study, highly …

In recent years, radio frequency (RF) dielectric heating has been increasingly studied as a
promising novel disinfestation method for agricultural commodities, especially dried fruit …

Background. Insect infestation caused by Ectomyelois ceratoniae or carob moth is one of the
main postharvest problems that can lead to a decrease of the marketable quality of dates …
