A more simple methodology of producing parboiled rice is subject to be investigated in this work with proposed the method, the gelatinization of rice starch, commonly taking place at the steaming step in the traditional process, and drying are combined and replaced by a hot air fluidized bed dryer. A pilot-scale continuous fluidized bed, with a maximum capacity of 140-150 kg/h, has been designed, constructed and tested. Suphanburi 90 paddy variety with high amylose content was dipped into hot water at temperatures of 70, 80, 83°C for 4.0, 3.3, 3.2 h, respectively, to get the moisture content around 47-55% db and dried at 150-170°C using air speed of 3.5 m/s. The paddy bed depth within the dryer was 3 and 5 cm. In the dryer operation, the exhaust air was fully recycled and reheated again by 30 kW electrical heaters to the desired temperature. The experimental result has shown that parboiled rice with a different degree of starch gelatinization could be produced by this technique. The degree ranged between 80-100% as examined by differential scanning calorimeter. The exit moisture content was given in a range of 14-21% db, relying on the drying temperature and soaking time. The aforementioned exit moisture contents were not a detrimental effect on head rice yield although the tempering was not included. The head rice yield was given in the range of 59-66%, depending on the degree of starch gelatinization. The starch granules lost their original shape as revealed by scanning electron microscope.

Abstract.Several researchers have reported that drying freshly harvested rough rice to safe storage moisture content of 14.9% d.b. in fluidized bed dryers resulted in a decrease in head rice yield, as compared with traditional drying methods. This phenomenon was attributed to the high thermal stress that affects rice kernels. The present study hypothesized that drying rough rice in fluidized bed dryers subjected to retention duration would maintain the rice quality as it may reduce the thermal stress. Therefore, the goal of this research was to investigate the effects of heating and retention durations on the dried rice head yield and energy consumption in a fluidized bed dryer. A bench-scale fluidized bed dryer was developed and tested. The effects of drying duration of 10, 20, and 30 min and the retention duration of 0, 15, 30, 45, and 60 min on rough rice moisture content, drying rate, head rice yield, and energy consumption were investigated. During the retention period, paddy released a considerable amount of moisture. This moisture reduction, achieved during retention period, was obtained without any additional heating cost and was a supplement to the overall drying process. The retention period helped with thermal stress management within rice kernels and resulted in maintaining the head rice yield as compared to the rice dried without retention duration. Considering all the studied heating and retention durations, the head rice yield values of rice samples varied from 46.0% to 51.0%. The lowest energy consumption of 3.31MJ/kg waterremoved was achieved at the heating duration of 10 min and the zero retention duration. This value represents 1.44 folds of the theoretical energy required to remove 1 kg of moisture from organic matter.

AbstractVarious conditions of a parboiling process affect the qualitative parameters of paddy milling. In this study, the effects of drying temperature (45 and 60 °C), moisture content (8, 10 and 12% w.b.), steaming time (10, 20 and 30 min) and paddy varieties (Hashemi and Alikazemi) were investigated on head rice yield (HRY). The samples were husked using a rubber roller husker and whitened by a laboratory abrasive whitener. Results showed that the main effects of all parameters were significant onHRY(P<0.01). The utilization of higher temperature (60 °C), in comparison with non-parboiled rice, without reducing the milling quality was found as one of the advantages of parboiling. Among all experiments, the highestHRY(68.647%) was achieved in the combination of Alikazemi/45 °C/10 min/8%. In the majority of cases, the combinations including Alikazemi variety had higherHRYthan Hashemi. For Hashemi variety, the highestHRY(67.297%) was achieved in combination 45 °C/10 min/8%. In terms ofHRY, parboiling causes an increase of 25.8% and 43.3% respectively for Hashemi and Alikazemi. Therefore, it is highly recommended in processing of Alikazemi variety.

A modified steaming method (steam using the revolved sieve; SRS) was applied to produce parboiled rice and the qualities of parboiled rice, namely, thermal properties (enthalpy; ΔH and degree of starch gelatinization: DG), head rice yield (HRY) and whiteness index (WI) were investigated under various steaming times and temperatures. The experimental results indicated that time and temperature during steaming step affected the parboiled rice qualities significantly. Prolonged time and increase of temperature during steaming provided the higher initial moisture content and grain temperature of rice sample after steaming, leading to longer time in drying process for decreasing the moisture content in the rice sample to 22% (d.b.). This provided the decrease of ΔH, leading to increase in the DG and resulting in the higher HRY and lower WI values.

Germinated parboiled rice (GPR) is recognized as a functional food because it is rich in bioactive compounds, especially gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). GPR was produced by soaking, incubating, steaming, and then drying using a high-precision hot air dryer. The results indicated that air flow mode and drying temperature had significant effects on the quality of GPR. Drying at higher temperatures and shorter times conserved GABA content. Using through-flow mode decreased drying time and prevented color change. However, a slightly lower percentage of head rice yield was observed. Moreover, using through-flow mode negatively affected the hardness loss after cooking.Keywords: Germinated parboiled rice; Drying mode; Gamma-aminobutyric acid; Head rice yield

Abstract. Rough rice in the Mid-South U.S. is typically stored and milled at a moisture content (MC) between 12% and 13% on a wet basis. Drying harvested rice to lesser MCs requires increasingly greater energy and reduces the overall mass of rice, both of which translate into lesser financial return for the crop. Considering these disadvantages of drying and storing rice at lesser MCs, farmers and grain handlers have been interested in exploring storing rice at slightly greater MCs. The current study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of storing rice at five MCs (11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, and 15%) on milling characteristics, particularly surface lipid content (SLC), milled rice yield (MRY), and head rice yield (HRY); additionally, the effects of storing rice at two storage temperatures (25°C and 35°C) and several storage durations (up to one year) on milling characteristics were investigated. Five long-grain rice lots were harvested in 2016 and 2017 from several locations in Arkansas; rice from each lot was gently dried to the target MCs and then stored in sealed glass jars at selected temperatures. With an increase in storage MC, shorter milling durations were needed to achieve a given SLC, which could potentially reduce the cost of the milling operation. However, rice samples stored at greater MCs were observed to have lesser HRYs, which could reduce the economic value of rice. The mean HRYs of the 15% MC samples were 4.8 to 9.1 percentage points less than the mean HRYs of the 12% MC samples. This study quantifies the milling characteristics of rice when stored for various durations at different MCs and temperatures. Overall, these data will allow the rice industry to make informed decisions related to storage conditions of rice, specifically storage MC.

HighlightsThis study explored the feasibility of developing an evaluation method for rice quality.A unified quality scale for different drying cycles facilitates evaluation of rice quality after drying.A head rice yield (HRY) prediction model was established that fit well with the actual HRY.The established HRY prediction model can be used as a performance index for optimization of rice drying.Abstract. Intelligent control of the drying process is important to achieve better rice quality. An effective quality evaluation method is the basis for intelligent control of rice drying. To study the effects of intermittent drying on the quality of paddy rice and explore the feasibility of establishing a quality evaluation method, intermittent drying experiments were conducted with variety Nanjing 9108 (Oryza sativa L.). The paddy samples were dried from an initial moisture content of 23.10% to 14% wet basis (w.b.). The paddy samples were initially dried at 60°C to various moisture contents without tempering. These pre-dried samples were then dried using different drying temperatures to obtain specific moisture content reductions, tempered, and then dried again at 60°C to the final moisture content of 14% w.b. without tempering. After drying, the quality parameters of the paddy samples were measured and analyzed. The R2 values of the head rice yield (HRY) prediction model, chalkiness prediction model, and protein prediction model established in this study were 0.75, 0.44, and 0.26, respectively. The HRY prediction model was shown to accurately predict HRY in the intermittent drying experiments. Within the range of the model parameters, the effectiveness of the HRY prediction model was explored by constant-temperature intermittent drying and variable-temperature intermittent drying. The results showed that if the summation of the predicted changes in HRY is large, then the measured HRY will be large. Therefore, the HRY prediction model can be used as a performance index for rolling optimization of the paddy drying process.

Abstract The influence of drying and tempering conditions on head rice yield of long- and medium-grain rough rice varieties was investigated. The head rice yield values for the medium-grain variety at high drying conditions and 1.5 and 3% points moisture content removal were even significantly higher than the corresponding values for the long-grain variety at low drying conditions. 1.5% points moisture content removal yielded the least damage to the rough rice. Under low drying conditions, tempering had no meaningful effect on head rice yield for all drying durations. For both varieties, using high drying conditions with 6% points moisture content removal at first drying stage associated with 120 min tempering duration could be suggested as a rapid and energysaving operation to achieve high head rice yield values.
