Dried foods, especially fruits, have become a requirement of many fields in most societies
not limited only to developing countries that often preserve food for periods of drought …

This paper investigates the effectiveness of an indirect solar dryer (ISD) specifically
designed for the geographical and climatic conditions of Meknes (Morocco). The constructed …

This study was investigated the effects of hot-air temperature and slice thickness on drying
characteristics of Crabapple slices. Drying experiments were carried out in the ranges of 60 …

Sludge drying is a crucial part of the sludge treatment and disposal processes, while thermal
drying has been a popular choice. In this work, the sludge thermal drying process is …

Air convective dehydration was performed at various temperatures (35° C, 40° C, 45° C and
50° C) using two types of fruits cultivars produced in different regions of Portugal: the Bravo …

This study examines a novel solar‐assisted heat pump dryer integrated with a thermal
energy storage system using soapstone as storage material. The dryer is investigated …

The relationship between salivary proteome and dietary habits was studied in previous
works, where a relationship between salivary proteins like cystatins and polyphenol/tannin …

Convective drying is the most common drying method, and mathematical modelling of the
dewatering process is an essential part of it, playing an important role in the development …

A box-type hot-air convection dryer integrated with parallel vertical fans, multiple air
deflectors, a rack moving mechanism, and an opening heat pump system was designed and …

This study is aimed at investigating the moisture sorption behavior and thin‐layer drying
kinetics of local sweet potato sada (LSPS) variety slices. The sweet potato tubers were …
