The purpose of this article is to present a discussion about recent technologies applied to
processes involving intermittent drying of agricultural products, in addition to verifying the …

The drying kinetics, microstructural alteration, and rehydration properties of raspberry
samples were studied experimentally in this work. Five different drying programs with the …

Conventional airflow is the most widely used drying process, although it has several
drawbacks that affect the performance and quality of the final product. Investigators have …

The purpose of this study is to evaluate both the temperature and the initial moisture content
of the material in mathematical models of drying. For this, empirical lumped parameter …

Several studies have been conducted for develo** new dryers and improving existing
ones to obtain a higher yield and maintain the quality of agricultural products. Thus, the …

Fractional calculus is a way to describe mathematically a process, and the foundation of this
technique is the replacement of the integer‐order differential with fractional order. The …

The extraordinary expansion of soybeans production and trade volumes over the past few
decades has undoubtedly generated global economic benefits. One factor responsible for …

Water removal rate during drying depends on the microstructural pathways of water
migration from inside the food materials. The water removal rate also depends on the …

This work aims to evaluate the kinetic profile of intermittent drying of wheat seeds using
traditional models from the literature and the fractional calculus technique. Furthermore, it …
