摘要
Drying characteristics of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus citrinopileatus) under sun-drying, thin-layer drying, and fluidized bed drying were studied at laboratory level. Colour, and rehydration ratio were used as criteria for evaluating the product quality. A batch type fluidized bed dryer of capacity 6 kg/batch was designed and fabricated for drying mushroom. Dehydrated mushroom of desirable quality in terms of colour, nutritive value and rehydration characteristics with satisfactory shelf-life of five months could be obtained. The optimum fluidized bed drying temperature was round to be 50 degrees C, with an air flow rate of 35 m(3)/min. Trials with natural convection solar cabinet dryer showed a drying time of 7 h, when the ambient temperature varied between 29 and 32 degrees C.
