Abstract:BACKGROUNDThis article aims to fit kinetic models of the passion fruit seed drying process, in addition to mathematical modeling using traditional models and fractional calculus of the extraction of lipids from the seeds.RESULTSRegarding the drying process, it was found that the model that best suited the two drying temperatures employed was the fractional order one.CONCLUSIONAnalysis showed that for both drying conditions the value of parameter α was greater than 1, indicating that the profile that occurs for… Show more
