Low Temperature Seaweed Drying Using Dehumidified Air

Abstract: The seaweeds are the important commodities as raw material for food or additives. One of the popular seaweeds, Eucheuma cottonii, contains carrageenan for starch or fiber sources that can be applied for beverages or gelatin. Currently, the seaweed has been widely provided as dry product in order to minimize the cost for transportation as well as prolong storage life. However , current drying process still deals with energy in-efficiency and product quality degradation. The dehumidified air can be an option to … Show more

“…The higher drying temperatures increased constant rate of the drying (Table 2), as also found n the previous studies [24,25]. The constant rate of the drying at drying temperature 70⁰C was 9.6 times higher than at drying temperature 50⁰C.…”

“…The largest problem with using waste heat is dehumidification; air dehumidification methods include ventilation, cooling and liquid dehumidification (Xu et al 2012). Mohamad Djaeni dried seaweed using dehumidified air, and the low relative humidity of the dehumidified air enhanced the driving force for drying and shortened the drying time (Djaeni & Sari 2015). In this paper, by dehumidifying the grain dryer exhaust and using the latent heat of phase change from vapor condensation during dehumidification, we greatly reduced the dryer energy consumption.…”
