Abstract

In recent years, biomass is one of the most important renewable energy sources. Most often it is a material with a high water content, which reduces its energy potential. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out the preliminary drying phase. The purpose of the work was to analyze the kinetics of drying of waste resulting from the production of juices obtained by extrusion. Drying process (forced convection, medium flow rate 1.5 m s−1 are, initial relative humidity 5–10%) were carried out at various temperatures of 45, 76, 96 °C, for apple pomace, formed in the form of cuboidal cubes. The influence of process parameters on the drying kinetics was determined. The drying curves and the drying rate over time and the water content in the sample at a given process temperature were analyzed.
