Abstract
Drying of food is a costly affair due to its energy intensive nature. The
size of the dryer and complexity of the process has led to need for an energy
efficient drying process. Many drying technologies are at various stages of
developments. One such rapidly growing, innovative technology is ‘inert bed
drying’. Its main advantages are its small size and energy efficient operation.
Drying of liquids and pastes in spouted bed with inert bodies, has been
presented as an alternative to spray drying.
