In this work, energy and quality attributes for deep bed drying of paddy were studied. Drying
experiments of freshly harvested paddy were conducted at different levels of drying air …

Rice is an important staple food in the world. Drying is an important step in the post-harvest
handling of rice and can influence rice qualities and thus play a key role in determining rice …

The objective of this study was to evaluate the cumulative effects of intermittent drying in
function of the number of cycles and exposure time of the grains to high temperatures in the …

The drying air temperature and storage time can change the milling yield and chemical
composition of rice grains. Therefore, the objective was to verify the industrial quality and …

Present study aims to optimize the process parameters and to develop a 3-dimensional,
multi-layered finite element model for predicting moisture and temperature profile during …

The development and performance evaluation of a solar Bubble drier (SBD) for drying
agricultural produce are presented in this study. In order to evaluate the solar bubble dryer's …

The objectives of the study were to observe the milling and cooking qualities of paddy rice
dried with hot air (HA) and hot air and radio frequency heating (HA/RF) at 38° C and 42° C …

Drying is one of the most important and high-energy consumption unit operations in post-
harvest treatment and storage of paddy, and heat loss is a major factor affecting drying …

The performances of a solar assisted fluidized bed dryer integrated biomass furnace (SA‐
FBDIBF) and a solar assisted heat pump fluidized bed dryer integrated biomass furnace …

Rice when harvested normally has a high moisture content of 20–25% which requires
immediate drying, reducing its mass loss and preventing it to spoil. This situation is more …
