An experimental study of shatkora (Citrus Macroptera) in a tray dryer: Effect on drying kinetics and product quality

Citrus macroptera is a citrus fruit locally known as Shatkora and the fruit of this plant were used for various purposes especially for cooking and also as an odorant in perfume industries.In this research work, Shatkora peel was dried using a laboratory scale tray dryer. The experimental work was c...
