Osmotic dehydration and convective drying of coconut slices: Experimental determination and description using one-dimensional diffusion model
Mass migrations in coconut slices during osmotic dehydration and drying are described using a diffusion model with boundary condition of the third kind. The osmotic dehydration experiment was performed at 35°Brix (water and sucrose) and 40 °C. The convective drying experiments were performed at 50,...
