چکیده
Botanicals are received in whole, non-sterile form. BI Nutraceuticals sterilizes, mills, and packages the ingredient in sturdy, safe containers before shipping to customers. Photo courtesy of BI Nutraceuticals Using Superheated Steam in Drying and Sterilization It seems counterintuitive to use water vapor in a process to remove water or to heat materials that can be damaged by moisture, but such processes exist and can offer advantages. Superheated steam drying is discussed by Prachayawarakorn and Soponronnarit (2010). Steam sterilization has been previously discussed in this column (2007). Here we will summarize those sources and describe a specific application.

Effect of colloidal Particles associated with the liquid bridge in sticking during drying in Superheated Steam
It is very important in the design of a drying system is to evaluate sticking behaviour of the materials goes under drying. A new approach to the sticking issue is applied in this study by carrying out a sticking test for the liquid associated with the materials under study. It was found that the liquid bridge is responsible of the initial sticking of the materials to the contact surface and th...
متن کاملSuperheated Steam Drying of Parsley: a Fixed Bed Model for Predicting Drying Performance
Superheated steam drying technique has been known for a long time, but its application to food drying has received little attention. In this work, superheated steam was applied to dry fresh parsley (Petroselinum Cripsum). A mathematical model to simulate this drying process was developed by using mass and energy conservation equations for solid and steam phases. The resulting partial differenti...
متن کاملModelling the Drying of Porous Coal Particles in Superheated Steam
The modelling and simulation of drying porous coal particles in superheated steam was investigated in this paper. Improved transport and kinetic parameters as well as particle shrinkage were considered in arriving at the results. The resulting partial differential equation describing the drying process was solved numerically using the finite element analysis in addition to other useful equation...
متن کاملMoisture , Color and Texture Changes in Cocoa Seeds duringSuperheated Steam
Roasting is one of the basic unit operations in the cocoa base industries.Cocoa beans were roasted using superheated steam oven in superheated steam mode at 150, 200 and 250C for 50 min. The effect of heating time and temperatures with roasting methods on the moisture content, color and texture of the cocoa beans were studied. The changes occurred in the moisture content, colorvalues (L-, a-, b...
متن کاملCFD Modeling and Simulation of Superheated Steam Fluidized Bed Drying Process
An unsteady mathematical model of superheated steam fluidized bed drying process is established based on the transport process principles and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The vapor-solid two-phase turbulent flow in the drying chamber is described with the Eulerian-Eulerian multiphase model. The model is solved by computer numerical simulation. The drying experiments of wet rapesee...
