A new process for the production of instant red jasmine rice was investigated using fluidized bed drying with the aid of swirling compressed air. Drying characteristics were evaluated using the operating parameters of fluidizing air temperature (90–120 °C) and pressure of swirling compressed air (4–6 bar). Appropriate air pressure was determined based on the highest value of model parameters from the semi-empirical Page equation and effective diffusivity. Influences of supply time of swirling compressed air (2–10 min) and drying temperature of 90–120 °C were investigated and optimized based on the quality attributes using response surface methodology. Drying at 120 °C and compressed air pressure of 6 bar gave the highest rate constant and effective diffusion coefficient. Drying at 120 °C combined with injecting swirling air for 2 min was the most suitable approach, while drying at 90 °C and supplying compressed air for 10 min was the best choice to preserve antioxidant properties. Air temperature of 98.5 °C with 2 min supply of swirling compressed air suitably provided high physical and rehydration properties and retained high health benefits of antioxidant compounds. Finally, after rehydration in warm water at 70 °C for 10 min, the textural properties of the rehydrated rice sample were comparable to conventionally cooked rice.

Pumpkin seeds are a major agricultural waste from the fresh-cut produce industry. The objective of this study was to investigate the drying behavior of untreated, whole pumpkin seeds in a fluidized bed dryer at 50–80 °C (2.87 m/s), with a view to producing a high-quality pumpkin powder from dried seeds. Seeds were dried at 50–80 °C to an average equilibrium moisture value of 0.035 to 0.006 g H2O/g DM (3.4 to 0.6% wb). Drying occurred in the falling rate period only and drying rate constants ranged from 0.0226 to 0.0900 1/min with corresponding diffusivity values for the first falling-rate period ranging from 4.68 to 18.63 × 10−10 m2/s. The activation energy (Ea)—for the first falling rate period was determined to be 43.9 kJ/mol. Of the nineteen thin layer models tested, the Alibas model could be successfully used as a general model to predict the Moisture Ratio (MR) data for all temperatures investigated. After drying, seeds were blended to produce powders, which were found to be high in fat, crude protein and fiber.

PHYSICOCHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF SAGO STARCH OBTAINED FROM FLUIDIZED BED DRYING USING SOLAR AND BIOMASS POWERED CROSS FLOW FLUIDIZED BED DRYER. The research aim is to study the comparative quality of sago starch drying results using cross flow fluidized bed dryer powered by solar and biomass in conventional drying, particularly the chemical composition and physicochemical characteristics. This research was conducted through a drying phase of wet sago starch using a cross flow fluidized bed dryer, and drying in conventional as well as dried sago starch quality testing results are drying. The results of this study indicate that dry sago starch which has been drained by means of cross flow fluidized bed dryer has a chemical composition that does not vary much with starch which is dried by conventional drying, so that the dried sago starch produced by the dryer is very good. On the other hand the use of dryers is the more correct because the physicochemical properties of sago starch using a low drying temperature and drying time is short. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mempelajari perbandingan kualitas pati sagu hasil pengeringan menggunakan alat pengering cross flow fluidized bed bertenaga surya dan biomassa dengan pengeringan secara konvensional, khususnya komposisi kimia dan karakteristik fisikokimia. Penelitian ini dilakukan melalui beberapa tahapan yaitu pengeringan pati sagu basah menggunakan alat pengering cross flow fluidized bed, pengeringan secara konvensional serta pengujian kualitas pati sagu kering hasil pengeringan. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pati sagu kering yang telah dikeringkan dengan alat pengering cross flow fluidized bed memiliki komposisi kimia yang tidak berbeda jauh dengan pati yang dikeringkan dengan cara pengeringan secara konvensional, sehingga pati sagu kering yang dihasilkan oleh alat pengering tersebut sangat baik. Di sisi lain penggunaan alat pengering ini semakin memperbaiki sifat fisikokimia pati sagu sebab menggunakan suhu pengeringan yang rendah dan waktu pengeringan yang singkat.   Kata Kunci: pengering unggun terfluidakan; fisikokimia; pati sagu
