Apple fruits are high in phenolic compounds, sugar and dietary fiber content rich malic acid vitamins, with a significant impact on the organoleptic quality its health-promoting properties. They can be turned out value-added product such as apple chips due to low cost of raw material. The aim study was obtain chips, fat-free, healthy, traditionally dried without added sugar, which easily obtain...

introduction: one of the most important aspects of food preservation is controlling the moisture of material such as fruits.dryingis considered as important method to controlbacteriasafely using reduction of moisture. the hot air drying method has been widely adopted in manufacturing of conventional dried food.nowadays, infrared radiation (ir) has significant advantages over conventional drying...

The main aim of this study was to develop an integrated solar-tracking system maximize the efficiency solar heaters manufactured from recyclable aluminum cans (RAC) for optimum drying apple slices. results revealed that thermal air heater incorporated with a tracking unit significantly improved by about 45% compared conventional fixed at all tested flow rates. highest 87.1% equipped achieved ra...

The design of a thermal-radiation single-drum roll dryer with combined method heat supply, application and cutting the dried layer raw materials was developed. allows obtaining powder fraction semi-finished product solids content 3...5 %. Such solution will make it possible to obtain high-quality due low-temperature drying.
 effective viscosity studied pastes produced by blending apple, se...

Edible coatings can guarantee the quality of agricultural products, and performance as a low oxygen barrier, carbon dioxide, water vapor, allowing reducing loss or controlling adsorption. The objective current work was aimed to evaluate effects novel edible based on basil seed xanthan gums, infrared (IR) drying efficiency coated apple slices. Seven empirical thin-layer models were fitted moistu...
