Convective drying of onion: modeling of drying kinetics parameters. [PDF]
Drying is a simultaneous heat and mass transfer processes. Drying kinetics is determined by both internal properties and external drying conditions. In this study, two important drying kinetics parameters of onions i.e. effective water diffusivity and relative activation energy of reaction engineering approach (REA) are determined.

Infrared Drying as a Potential Alternative to Convective Drying for Biltong Production. [PDF]
Two infrared systems set at an intensity of 4777 W/m<sup>2</sup> with peak emission wavelengths of 2.5 and 3.5 μm were used to produce <em>biltong</em> by drying differently pre-treated meat. In addition to meat texture and colour, the microbial quality of the <em>biltong</em> produced was assessed by quantifying ...
