Fermented Sausages

The aim of this work was to find out an alternative drying process for semi-dry fermented sausages. Fermented sausages were subjected to hot air drying (HA) and microwave vacuum drying (MWV), respectively. The HA was carried out at 70 °C for 60 min. For MWV, three temperatures i.e. 30 °C, 40 °C and 50 °C were applied with pressure controlled at 80 kPa and microwave intensity at 6 kW for 2 min. After drying, the dehydration rates were determined immediately. The products were stored at room temperature until the end of experiment. The pH value, 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA) and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) contents were measured at 0, 7, 14 and 28 days, respectively. In addition, the sensory properties were evaluated at 28 d. The results showed that compared to the HA, MWV could postpone the rise of pH value, TBA and TVB-N contents during the storage. Moreover, the sensory properties of MWV were better than that of HA, indicating that MWV would be a greatly promising drying process for semi-fry fermented sausages.

In this study, drying kinetics, chemical composition and surface color for fillets samples, namely Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) subjected to combined drying (ultrasonic assisted vacuum drying) and hot-air drying were compared at full length between 50-70°C. Drying process carried out entirely in the falling rate period. The results suggested that the moisture content was influenced by the combined drying method and the drying temperature. The shortest drying time was obtained using combined drying method at 70°C. The combined drying method made shorter the drying process and enhanced the effective moisture diffusivity by comparison with hot-air drying method. The activation energies were observed using a modified Arrhenius type equation as of 2.392 and 4.83 kW kg-1 for combined and hot-air drying, respectively. Quality characteristics of fillets samples were specified as physical (moisture content, color values) and chemical (protein, fat and ash). Seven different drying models were considered for moisture ratios using nonlinear regression analysis. The consequences of regression analysis stated that the Midilli et al., model best fits data set. According to the results, the highest effective moisture diffusivity was determined in the fillets dried with the ultrasonic assisted vacuum drying method and they increased with increasing drying temperatures. Ultrasonic treatment accelerated the vacuum drying process for the fillets. Also, the ultrasonic assisted vacuum drying method is a better technology to preserve the original material and prevent thermal damage.

Microwave vacuum drying is one of innovative drying techniques that is today used in drying of foods, medical products and other high quality products. In this drying technology, heat is generated by directly transforming the electromagnetic energy into kinetic molecular energy of water, thus the heat is produced deep within the material to be dried under vacuum environment. This paper presents the results of research on microwave vacuum drying of “Cat Chu” mango in Mekong Delta – Vietnam. “Cat Chu” mango, with moisture content of (80 ± 1) % (wet basis - wb), was sliced into 5 cm thickness, and was dried in mWaveVac0150-lc dryer (Püschner - Germany). The drying vacuum was from 60 to 120 mbar. Three levels of microwave power were established: the first phase from 600 to 800 W, the second phase from 300 to 500 W, the last one from 150 to 250 W. The control sample was dried by convective drying method at 60 °C; and vacuum drying at 70 mbar, 60 °C. The results of this research showed that high quality product in terms of color, surface shrinkage and structure was obtained by microwave vacuum drying. The drying time was about 45 min, 450 min and 870 min with microwave vacuum drying, vacuum drying and convective hot-air drying, respectively. In addition, Fick’s equation and Crank’s solution were applied to analyze and calculate the accessibility and diffusion coefficient of microwave vacuum drying process. Starting accessibility of process was significantly increased; the diffusivity obtained was within a range from 6.44*10-10 m2/s to 16.16*10-10 m2/s. The results also indicated that there was a higher exchange in surface and a greater internal diffusion of experimental microwave vacuum drying samples compared to the control vacuum and hot-air drying samples.

Abstract The drying characteristics and volume changes of scarlet runner beans were measured under various conditions to obtain useful basic information for the optimum drying method and conditions. The sample was dried using two drying methods: hot air drying and vacuum drying. The measured changes in moisture content of the sample with the hot air drying process were in good agreement with the exact solution of the infinite plane sheet model. The estimated diffusion coefficients were 3.8×10 -7 -7.4×10 -7 (m 2 h -1) for hot air drying and were related to absolute temperature by an Arrhenius-type equation. The hull of the scarlet runner bean is hard and thick, and the drying rate of the sample was much slower than that of other beans. To establish an efficient drying method without the quality loss, the vacuum drying characteristics of the sample were measured at several levels for temperature and initial moisture content. For the vacuum drying process, an exponential model could be used to estimate the changes in moisture content of the sample. The values of diffusion coefficient for vacuum drying were approximately twice as much as the values of diffusion coefficient for hot air drying at the same temperature. The effects of drying method, temperature, and initial moisture content on the sample quality were investigated, and the optimum drying method and conditions for scarlet runner beans were proposed. Volumetric changes in the sample were determined by measuring particle density. The specific volume of the sample was represented as a linear function of moisture content.
