Modeling kinetics of convective drying of Curcuma longa L.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to determine drying curves of land saffron (Curcuma longa L.) rhizomes at different temperatures and ventilation conditions to adjust non-linear regression models, and to calculate effective diffusion coefficients and activation energies. Saffron rhizomes were randomly coll...
