Thin-layer drying of mint (Mentha piperita) leaves

Abstract

List paprene metvice (Mentha piperita) bio je sušen u elemen-tarnom (tankom) sloju u sušnici na temperaturama zraka raspona od 35 do 60 °C. Porast temperature radnog medija (zraka) značajno je smanjio vrijeme sušenja lista. Podaci o sušenju lista paprene metvice analizirani su i u pogledu difuzije u periodima sušenja.The thin-layer drying of mint leaves for a temperature range of 35–60 °C was determined in a (cabinet) dryer. The increase in air temperature significantly reduced the drying time of the mint leaves. Drying data of this material were analysed to obtain diffusivity values from the falling rate-drying period
