Kinetic Study of Convective Drying of Blueberry Variety O’neil (Vaccinium corymbosum L.)

Abstract: The aim of this research was to study and to model the drying kinetics of the blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) at three temperatures (60, 70 and 80 ºC) with an airflow of 2.0 ± 0.2 m s -1. Modeling of the desorption isotherm was carried out with the GAB (Guggenheim, Anderson and de Boer) equation, showing a good fit to experimental moisture data, giving as a result a monolayer moisture level of 0.084 g water g -1 dm. Newton, Henderson-Pabis, Page, Modified Page and Logarithmic mathematical models were appli… Show more

“…Thus, as the air-drying temperature increased the drying time decreased to reach similar final moisture content. Similar drying characteristics were also reported by other researchers (MacGregor 2005;Kavak Akpinar and Bicer 2006;Shi et al 2008;Vega-Gálvez et al 2009). The shape and scale parameters of Weibull distribution as well as the statistical tests applied are presented in Table 1 for the five temperatures under study.…”

“…Thin-layer drying models have been used for analysis of drying of various agricultural and marine products, such as fish (Kilic, 2009), sea cucumber (Duan et al, 2010), spirulina (Dissa et al, 2010), apple (Doymaz, 2010), banana (Smitabhindu et al, 2008), berberis (Aghbashlo et al, 2008), blueberry (Vega-Galvez et al, 2009), carrot (Berruti et al, 2009), cassava (Ghaba et al, 2007), cocoa (Hii et al, 2009), pear (Guine et al, 2007), mango (Dissa et al, 2011), apricots, fig, grape andplum (Togrul andPehlivan, 2004), tomatoes (Marfil et al, 2008), sweet cherry (Doymaz and Osman, 2011), chili (Artnaseaw et al, 2010) and red beet (Kaleta and Krzysztof, 2010). Heat pump drying was proposed to enhance the drying kinetic of salak fruit and retain a high concentration of total phenolic compounds in the fruit (Ong and Law, 2011).…”

“…Vitamin C termasuk komponen yang labil dan menjadi indikator degradasi antioksidan larut air. Vega-Gálvez et al (2009) menyatakan bahwa penurunan kadar vitamin C adalah disebabkan degradasi oksidatif yang irreversible. Paparan suhu pengeringan dimulai dari 50ºC akan mengurangi kadar vitamin C hingga 75% pada buah blueberry (Lopez et al, 2010).…”
