Basics of Drying
Drying- definition

 Removal of majority of water present in the food by the


application of heat
 Removal of water by evaporation or sublimation
 Purpose
- to extend the shelf life by lowering aw
- To reduce volume (reduce storage and transport costs)
Theory

 Involves simultaneous heat and mass transfers


 Heat must be transferred to equal the heat of evaporation
 If heat supply is less than the amount of evaporation-
temperature of material drops- “evaporative cooling”
 If heat supply is more than the amount of evaporation-
temperature of material rises
Drying techniques

 Hot air drying


 Solid drying
- Cabinet/try drier, heat pump drier, bin drier, conveyor drier, fluidised bed
drier, flash drier
 Liquid drying
- Spray drier, drum drier
 Freeze drying
- Solid and liquid both
 Microwave drying
DRYING USING HEATED AIR

3 inter-related factors controlling the


capacity of moisture removal from food
 Amount of vapour already carried by the air (absolute humidity or
RH)
 Air temperature
 Amount of air passing through the product (amount and velocity)
Mechanism of drying

 During drying- water vapour diffuses


through a boundary layer
 Water vapour gradient (DP) from
surface to interior of food
 DP- driving force for water removal
Air

Boundary layer
Boundary layer

 A stagnant air film surrounding the food particles


 Barrier to both heat and mass transfer
 Thicker the film slower the diffusion of evaporated vapour
into the air
 Thickness of this film- determined by velocity of the air
 Faster the air- thinner the film- faster the drying
Movement of moisture during drying

Food cells
Moisture diffusion
Moisture movement mechanism

 Liquid movement by capillary forces- particularly in


porous food
 Diffusion of liquids caused by differences in
concentration of solutes at the surface and in the
interior
 Diffusion of liquids absorbed in layers at the
surface of solid components of foods
 Water vapour diffusion in air spaces within food
caused by vapour pressure gradient (multilayer
moisture- diffusion in vapour form)
Drying periods

• Constant-rate period drying


• Falling-rate period drying

Drying time
Constant-rate drying period

 Moisture removal with respect to time is constant


 Water movement occurs mainly by capillary forces
 Movement of water from the interior equals to the
evaporation rate from the surface
 Exists when surface remains wet
 Surface temperature is maintained at wet-bulb
temperature
 Very brief constant rate or non-existing in food
 End of constant rate and beginning of falling rate is
called “critical moisture content”
Falling-rate drying period

 Drying rate slowly decreases until it approaches to


zero at the equilibrium moisture content of the
drying air (aw of the food is = RH of the air)
 Rate of water movement to the surface is less than
the evaporation from the surface
 Surface becomes drier than interior- formation of
crust or a “case hardening”
 Temperature of the product increases
 Non-hygroscopic foods- single falling rate
 Hygroscopic foods- two or more falling rate

Product property factor influencing the drying
rate
 Size
 smaller size larger surface area and less distance from
interior to surface- less diffusion time- faster drying
 Structure
 Orientation of fiber in vegetable or meat
 Internal porosity
 Tissue rupture by freezing, blanching or mechanical
 Composition
 High solutes such as sugars, salts decrease the porosity
– slow moisture removal
 Ratio of product to air
 High ratio than an optimal- slower water removal
Calculation of drying rate

 Useful information to estimate how quickly a food will dry in


a drier
 Allows to calculate the production rate per hour or day
 Data required:
 Equilibrium moisture content at drying air temperature condition
 Critical moisture content
