Influence of power density and geometry of young cactus cladodes (Opuntia ficus-indica (L.) Mill.) on intermittent microwave drying kinetics

“…Power density Drying time In comparison with others drying methods and materials; the values of D e f f reported ranged from 5.67 × 10 −9 to 1.05×10 −7 m 2 s −1 for Cecina using combined solarconvective drying (Tlatelpa-Becerro et al, 2022), and from 1.27×10 −7 to 5.62×10 −6 m 2 s −1 for Moroccan pomegranate arils using convective and greenhouse drying (El Broudi et al, 2022).…”

Effects of steaming and drying on quality and antioxidant activity of white-fleshed sweet potato powder (Ipomoea batatas)

“…Hot air drying is the most commonly used technique due to its high drying efficiency. However, heat treatment should also be performed at mild temperatures for the minimum time necessary (El Broudi et al, 2022). Drying kinetics and mathematical models for the drying process of some vegetables and fruits have been studied (Krokida et al, 2003;Thuy et al, 2022;Loan and Tai, 2023), allowing simulation and process optimization as well as sizing and determining the commercial application of the drying system.…”
