Abstract | The work reported in this article was conducted to determine thin layer drying rates and equilibrium moisture contents of abattoir paunch waste. The equilibrium moisture content of paunch varied from 7.14% to 13.12% for drying in air between 35 and 55C, and at 40e80% relative humidity. A predictive |
