the canola drying process was investigated using three laboratory scale dryers connected to a computer which continuously recorded the drying processes of each unit. a completely randomized design (crd) with three replications was used for the statistical analysis. the effect of temperature (40°, 50°, 60°c) and air velocity (1, 2 m/s) on the drying kinetics of a monolayer were studied. the effe...

common drying systems, including hot air convection, infrared, vacuum and ir-convective were employed to investigate and analyze the drying process of mulberry fruits. to evaluate the effect of pretreatment on the drying phenomenon, samples were pretreated by being subjected to: microwaves, chemical preparation, mechanical as well as blanching approaches. results revealed that the microwave pre...

Rubellimicrobium thermophilum Denner et al. 2006 is the type species of the genus Rubellimicrobium, a representative of the Roseobacter clade within the Rhodobacteraceae. Members of this clade were shown to be abundant especially in coastal and polar waters, but were also found in microbial mats and sediments. They are metabolically versatile and form a physiologically heterogeneous group withi...

The drying process of traditional Chinese medicine Rosa laevigata Michx was investigated in a laboratory scale dryer. Drying experiments were conducted at five temperatures of 40 ̊C, 50 ̊C, 60 ̊C, 70 ̊C and 80 ̊C. The experimental data were fitted to ten different thin layer drying models to select a suitable model for describing the drying process of Rosa laevigata Michx fruits. The results showed ...

Abstract The main purpose of this paper was to investigate the influence air temperatures (T), velocity (v) and blanching time (ô) on behavior Tenebrio molitor when a closed-system heat pump dryer is used dry sample equilibrium water content (dry basis 12.5%). T 40°C, 50°C 60°C; v 2, 3 4 m/s; ô 15, 30 45 s. And quality T. measured every 15 minutes. We also established mathematical model predict...

Nigeria’s dry onion production amounted to 1.38× 106 metric tonnes (t) in 2020. Roughly 50% of yearly do not reach the table. An option lies converting fresh onions powder mitigate postharvest losses. This study explores possibility producing from using a pre-tested locally fabricated direct-mode solar tent dryer. The outcome processing revealed product yield 8.09%, while there was no statistic...

In his comprehensive and succinct overview of passives in the world’s languages, Edward Keenan (1985) makes the following typological observations. First, not all languages have passives; and second, such passive-less languages commonly use one of the following grammaticized means to express functional equivalents of passive: (a) to use the “impersonal” third person plural subject; or (b) to el...
