Drying can increase the shelf life of food products by removing the water content to a point w here the product is shelf-stable. There are various drying technologies in food processing and recent advent of hybrid system such as microwave-assi sted\n hot air drying is very promising. A study was conducted to compare t he drying performance of broccoli stalk slices dried under hot air drying and microwave-assisted hot air drying. The results indicated that the micr owave-assisted hot air drying was more efficient since it allowed faster m oisture removal. Different treatments of preconditioning drying are sugges ted to improve the quality of dried product.\n\nEveryone in the 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ com munity is welcome to attend a PhD oral defense. Please join us in celebrat ing the accomplishments of our PhD candidates.\n\n \n\n \n DTSTART:20160729T131500Z DTEND:20160729T131500Z LOCATION:R3-045\, Raymond Building\, CA\, QC\, St Anne de Bellevue\, H9X 3V 9\, 21111 Lakeshore Road SUMMARY:PhD Oral Defense: Dried Broccoli Stalk Through Application of Osmot ic Dehydration and Microwave-Assisted Hot Air Drying URL:/macdonald/channels/event/phd-oral-defense-dried-b roccoli-stalk-through-application-osmotic-dehydration-and-microwave-assist ed-261844 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
