Thin layer mathematical modelling of white maize in a mobile solar-biomass hybrid dryer
Performance of a tractor mounted solar-biomass hybrid dryer which utilise combined energy of solar and biomass was investigated. Drying behaviour of maize grains in the dryer was also investigated using 10 thin-layer mathematical models.

Browning mechanism and process optimization during MaizeMaize KX7349 Drying
Browning of KX7349 maize during drying occurred mainly in the pericarp layer. Browning was caused by oxidation of water soluble matter in the pericarp layer. Moisture content had no significant influence on browning rate.

Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most important nutritious grains which have high moisture content during harvest. Moisture content of 24-25% (db) at the harvest has to be reduced below 14% (db) to prevent its deterioration during storage.

Metallic salt deposition on porous particles by dry impregnation in fluidized bed: Effect of drying conditions on metallic nanoparticles distribution [PDF]
In this paper, the fluidized bed dry impregnation of coarse alumina porous particles by a metallic salt, manganese nitrate, is investigated. In this technique the penetration of each drop of metallic solution in the porous solid particle and solvent ...

Validation of a coupled heat, vapour and liquid moisture transport model for porous materials implemented in CFD [PDF]
Moisture-related damage is an important issue when looking at the performance of building envelopes. In order to accurately predict the moisture behaviour of building components, building designers can resort to Heat, Air and Moisture (HAM) models.

Ultrasonic assisted far infrared drying characteristics and energy consumption of ginger slices
Three drying methods, including far infrared drying, infrared convection drying, and ultrasonic pretreatment assisted far infrared drying, were adopted in the drying of ginger slices. The effects of main parameters (ultrasonic pretreatment power and time,
