Mass Transfer Kinetics of Osmotic Dehydration of Beetroot Cubes in Sucrose Solution
نویسندگان
چکیده
Osmotic dehydration kinetics of beetroot cubes in sucrose solution having different concentrations (30?Brix, 45?Brix and 60?Brix), solution temperature 35, 45 and 55 ?C, sample to solution ratio 1:4 were studied up to 240 min duration. For osmotic dehydration of beetroot in solution of sucrose the effect of all process parameter were significant at 5% level of significance on both water loss and solute gain (p

Mass transfer kinetics and optimization during osmotic dehydration of beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.)
The present study was carried out to investigate the mass transfer kinetics and optimization during osmotic dehydration of beetroot. The samples were osmotically treated in different hypertonic sugar solution (55, 65 and 75 0 Brix) with salt concentration of 5 % (w/v), at different solution temperature (30, 45 & 60 °C). Mass transfer kinetics was modeled according to Magee and Azuara model, and...
متن کاملAn Investigation of Mass Transfer Phenomena during Osmotic Dehydration of Orange Slices
The osmotic dehydration causes water removing from food and also a soluble solid uptake into thefoodstuffs. However, large penetration of solute into the food becomes a major problem in osmoticdehydration.Pre-coating the food to be dehydrated with an artificial, edible barrier was also explored as a wayto efficiently hinder solute penetration. In this study the effect of edible coating (CMC),co...

Among tubers, Amorphophallus companulatus known as elephant foot yam is a highly potential tropical tuber crop containing a good amount of protein as well as starch, fiber, minerals and vitamins. Fresh yams are perishable in nature and deteriorate in quality on storage. The shelf life of Elephant foot yam can be increased if processed properly. The quality of the dehydrated product can be enhan...
