Drying kinetics and thermodynamic properties of pigeon pea beans

Abstract: Pigeon pea is a common plant cultivated in family farming. It is often used as a source of protein for animal breeding. The knowledge of the drying kinetics and the thermodynamic properties of pigeon pea beans (Cajanus cajan) is relevant for simulation of drying, which aims to maintain the quality of beans. The objective of this study is to estimate the drying curves of pigeon pea beans using mathematical models. This study also aims to determine their thermodynamic properties. Forced-drying greenhouses were u… Show more

“…At 80 °C, the approximation of the diffusion model demonstrated satisfactory fitting by presenting lower values of P and SE. Midilli (4) and the Approximation of diffusion (13) models have been used previously to represent the drying kinetics of grains (Khanali et al, 2012;Maia et al, 2019;Perea-Flores et al, 2012).…”

“…Gibbs free energy is a measure of the work carried out by the system in the process of adsorption or desorption; a positive value indicates the addition of energy for the occurrence of phase change (liquid to vapor) of the product (Kaleemullah & Kailappan, 2007;Oliveira et al, 2015). The drying process is characterized as nonspontaneous, requiring the addition of energy, supplied by the drying air, to promote a reduction in the moisture content (Maia et al, 2019). Santos and Morais (2015), when drying orange peel, obtained values for the variation in Gibbs free energy of between 161.00 and 230.00 kJ mol À1 K À1 , and when drying jabuticaba peel, Costa et al (2016) obtained 4G values of between 34.56 and 34.80 kJ mol À1 K À1 .…”

“…no final do processo de secagem. Verifica-se que o tempo de secagem diminuiu com o aumento da temperatura (Figura 1), situação também observada em grãos de feijão cultivar IPR Tangará, grãos de feijão Guandu e grãos de feijão Adzuki (Quequeto et al, 2017, Maia et al, 2019, Almeida et al, 2009. De acordo com Goneli et al (2014), a redução do tempo de secagem com o aumento da temperatura pode ser explicada devido ao aumento do gradiente de pressão de vapor entre o ar de secagem e o ar no interior do grão.…”
