Kinetics of the Vacuum Drying of Cheeses
Cheeses are analyzed as vacuum drying objects. An experimental vacuum drier and its elements are schematized. The operating principle of the experimental setup is described. Moisture is demonstrated to be among the most important components of cheese. The physicochemical composition of cheeses is considered.

Drying kinetics and mass transfer properties in the drying of thistle flower [PDF]
Abstract Thistle flowers, and particularly their stigmas, are used to coagulate milk in the production of a number of traditional Portuguese cheeses due to their high milk-clotting activity provided by the high content of aspartic proteases. The aim of the present work was to determine the mass transfer properties of thistle flower under different ...

Drying and denaturation kinetics of Beta-Lactoglobulin during convective drying [PDF]
Abstract Beta-Lactoglobulin (β-Lg) is the major fraction of whey protein that comprises more than 65%. Therefore, denaturation of β-Lg during drying can affect the protein functionality where the whey protein is used as an ingredient in food products.

Effect of Swell-Drying on Mango (Mangifera indica) Drying Kinetics
Swell-Drying operation (SD) was applied on mangoes to evaluate its effect on drying kinetics: starting accessibility (δW), apparent drying coefficient (Dapp), and time to obtain a final moisture content of 20% d.b (tf = 20% d.b). Swell-drying consisted of (1) submitting fresh mangoes to a first pre-drying stage under Convective Air Drying (CAD) until a

Development of model based sensors for the supervision of a solar dryer
Solar dryers are increasingly used in developing countries as an alternative to drying in open air, however the inherent variability of the drying conditions during day and along year drive the need for achieving low cost sensors that would enable to ...
