Drying under inert environment: the quality of Mango and Rockmelon

Drying under inert environment: the quality of Mango and Rockmelon

Extensive tests were carried out on the quality related properties, such as flavor, appearance, texture and nutritional values of mango and rockmelon samples dried under normal air heat pump dryer (HPD), modified atmosphere heat pump dryer (MAHPD) using N2, and CO2 and also vacuum and freeze dryer...
