“…Several reviews have been published recently about biomass gasication. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15] These reviews covered various aspects of the technology, including the effects of gasier designs, temperature, pressure, steam-to-biomass (S/B) ratio, steam ow rate, moisture and biomass particle sizes and catalysts on biomass conversion and gas product yields. For example, Hoang et al 10 recently published a review on the key factors that affect the hydrogen yield from steam gasication of lignocellulosic biomass.…”

“…Nitrogen (N 2 ) is also present in the gas product but can come from the gasifying agent and the biomass feedstock. [13][14][15] The yield and quality of the gas product depend on several factors, including mainly the biomass type and particle size, the gasifying agent, the type of gasier (reactor), the ratio of biomass to gasifying agent and other operating conditions of the process. The main equation for the gasication process may be represented as eqn (1):…”

“…The drying method and drying parameters such as drying temperature, drying air humidity and drying air velocity have a great influence on not only the structure, quality and shelf life of dried products but also the drying rate and energy consumption (Singh et al, 2008;Pardeshi et al, 2009;Waheed et al, 2019;Abhishek et al, 2020). Therefore, the selection of a suitable drying method is very important not only to improve the drying efficiency but also to maintain the sensory and nutritional quality of the dried products (Abhishek et al, 2018;Villalobos et al, 2018;Kadriye et al, 2019;Bei et al, 2020;Katarzyna et al, 2021).…”

This study focused on the heat and mass transfer in radio (RF) assisted heat pump (HP) drying of carrots. The experimental drying of carrot by RF assisted HP drying method was conducted to evaluate the effect of RF power on drying efficiency including drying rate and heating rate. The input drying parameters were drying air temperature of 45 o C, drying air velocity of 2.5 m/s and RF power of 0, 0.5 and 1.5 kW, in which, RF power of 0 was corresponding to HP drying method. The experimental drying results showed that in RF assisted HP drying method, the drying rate and heating rate were improved as compared to HP drying. The drying time was 480, 375 and 335 minutes corresponding to RF power of 0, 0.5 and 1.5 kW. The temperature of drying material reached the drying air temperature in about 25 and 30 minutes corresponding to RF power of 1.5 and 0.5 kW. While in HP drying, the temperature of drying material reached nearly the drying air temperature value in about 310 minutes. Besides, the comparison between the heat and mass equations solving results and experimental drying data was also carried out with the analysis results confirmed that the predicted data by numerically solving the heat and mass transfer equations could be used to predict the experimental data accurately.

“…Moreover, a novel method or one that combines existing methods is required to ensure the excellent quality of the dried items [ 12 – 14 ]. The improved technologies diminish energy consumption by as much as 80% and improve drying efficiency by as much as 26.5% in terms of reduction in drying time [ 15 ]. In addition to this, the idea of quality needs to include both the energy efficiency and the effect that making sustainable dry goods has on the environment [ 13 ].…”

Drying fruits and vegetables is a procedure of food preservation with simultaneous heat, mass, and momentum transfer, which increases the shelf life of the food product. The aim of this review was to provide an overview of the researches on mathematical modeling for drying of fruits and vegetables with the special emphasis on the computational approach. Various heat-mass transport models, their applications, and modern drying technologies to the food industry have been reported in this study. Computational fluid dynamics, a new approach for solving heat and mass transfer problems, increases the accuracy of the predicted values. To investigate the parameters of drying needs a significant amount of time as well as costly laboratory and experimental efforts. Therefore, computational modeling could be an effective alternative to experimental approaches. This review will be beneficial for future studies in drying processes, especially for modeling, analysis, design, and optimization of food science and food engineering.
