Advances in Drying Science and Technology- Superheated Steam

Bol

This book is a guide to selecting the appropriate type of superheated steam drying (SSD) as per operational techniques, including steam oven dryers, rotary drum dryers, tray dryers, flash dryers, and fluidized bed dryers. The book assesses future needs and opportunities for industry adoption and further innovation. Superheated steam drying (SSD) has long been recognized for several major advantages it offers over other convective dryers, including high energy efficiency by utilization of energy in the exhaust steam, higher product quality due to the absence of oxygen, and avoidance of fire and explosion hazards. Offering a global critical overview of the current state of art, Superheated Steam Drying: Technology for Improved Sustainability and Quality assesses future needs and opportunities for industry adoption and further innovation in SSD. It covers SSD technologies for various industrial sectors and mathematical modeling approaches to help with design and scale-up. The effects of SSD on drying kinetics as well as product quality are also discussed with examples. This book serves as a useful reference for technicians, graduate students, and researchers in the field of drying technology. It can also be used in courses on industrial drying, processing and drying of food, advanced drying technology, and superheated steam drying.
