THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT MICROWAVE POWERS ON THE DRYING KINETICS AND POWDER PROPERTIES OF FOAM-MAT DRIED EGG WHITE POWDER
Abstract
The aim of this study is
to determine the effect of different microwave powers on the drying kinetics
and powder properties of foam mat dried egg white powder. For this purpose, the
egg white foam was obtained by using kitchen blender (1000W, 5min) and dried in
a domestic microwave oven at five different microwave powers (120-720W).
According to the results, the drying time decreased from 360s to 80s according
to increasing microwave power (P <0.05). In order to determine the
drying kinetic of egg white foam, the experimental data was fitted to various
semitheoretical models and one empirical model. Page model which showed the
highest R2 values (0.983-0.994) was chosen as the most suitable
model for determining the drying behavior of egg white foam. In addition, the
average effective moisture diffusivity and activation energy values were
calculated and ranged between 3.3389E-08 to 1.4139E-07 m2/s and
28.0640 W/g, respectively
