The effects of drying methods (hot air, cold air, vacuum, and infrared drying) on physicochemical and organoleptic qualities of sliced-dried persimmons (Diospyros kaki Thumb. cv. Cheungdobansi) were investigated. The weight of the sliceddried persimmons ranged from 9.30 to 12.01 g, the length from 3.55 to 4.06 cm, the width and thickness were from 3.17 to 3.73 cm and 1.82 to 2.04 cm, respectively. Hot air drying resulted in the highest hardness value as well as Hunter's L, a, and b values. Infrared drying showed the lowest L value and vacuum drying revealed the lowest a and b values. Moisture contents of the sliced-dried persimmons ranged from 38.04 to 46.41%, and soluble solid contents were 42.96-$48.44^{\circ}Bx$. The phenolic compounds and DPPH radical scavenging activity were high for infrared and vacuum drying methods, and all the sliced-dried persimmons showed relatively high antioxidant activities. The sensory evaluation results indicated that the organoleptic scores for the overall preference were high in the order of vacuum > infrared > hot air > cold air drying. These results suggest that the drying methods affected the qualities of the sliced-dried persimmons, showing that vacuum drying is the mast effective among the methods tested for manufacturing the high-quality sliced-dried persimmons.

2012년 국내 총 폐기물(지정폐기물 제외) 발생량은 382,009 톤/일 으로 이 중 12.8%를 차지하는 생활폐기물 중 음식물 채소류폐기물 발생량은 13,209 톤/일 으로 이중 음식물 폐기물은 탈수 후 사료 제조 또는 매립 처리되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고수분 음식물 쓰레기를 재활용한 고형연료 제조에 필요한 건조장치를 개발하고 실험을 통해 그 성능을 확인하고자 하였다. 본 연구를 위해 건조용량 500 kg/hr인 실험실용 열분해장치를 제작하였다. 회사 구내식당 및 창원시에서 수거된 음식물 쓰레기를 실험 원료로 사용하였다. 건조공기 투입 온도에 따른 음식물 쓰레기의 건조 특성을 파악하였다. 음식물 쓰레기 건조실험 결과, 총 건조소요시간은 약 20시간 정도로 나타났으며, 건조속도는 약 2.90 %/hr로 나타났다. 건조시간은 연구 목표치인 1회당 15시간보다 5시간 소요된 것으로 나타났으나 투입 및 배출에 소요되는 예열 및 냉각 시간을 제외하면 약 16시간으로 연구목표치에 근접한 것으로 판단된다. 투입건조공기 온도에 따른 건조시간은 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으며, 특히 $155^{\circ}C$에서 21시간으로 나타나 향후 폐열 활용 시 $200^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온의 공기를 사용하지 않아도 건조작업이 가능함을 확인하였다. 건조시간 단축을 위해서는 투입공기의 온도보다는 투입공기와 음식물 쓰레기의 접촉 면적이 큰 영향을 끼치는 것으로 판단된다.

온도에 따른 건조속도의 변화는 온도가 높을수록 건조속도가 급가속화되고, 온도가 낮을수록 완만한 형태를 보임을 알 수 있었다. kW가 증가할수록 항률건조 시간이 줄어들고, 한계함수율에 도달하는 시간이 짧아지는 경향을 나타냈다.

In this study, moisture transport characteristics for the woven and knitted fabrics made of 8 kinds of fiber materials using MMT (moisture management tester) were measured and discussed with the Bireck bt MMT and water evaporating rate (WER) measuring methods, which are vertical moisture transport methods. In addition, the drying property by MMT of the eight kinds of specimens was compared and discussed with the results measured by the vertical drying measurement. MMT experimental result which is horizental moisture transport appeared to be similar to the result of the Bireck method, which is the vertical moisture transport experiment. Absortion time measured from drip method of the fabrics made of the bamboo, linen, and cotton/nylon composite fabrics was short and thus they showed best wicking property, which was attributed to the low contact angle on the fabric surface and high porosity of the fabrics due to the staple yarn structure composed of the hydrophilic staple fibers. In drying property of the fabric specimens by MMT, maximum absorption radius of the dry-zone knit and bamboo woven fabrics were the highest and they showed the best drying property, which was a little different result compared with vertical drying measurement method. Half time of the drying rate in the MMT method was highly correlated with the fabric thickness and saturated moisture absortion rate and their regression coefficients were 0.9 and 0.88, respectively. This means that the knitted and woven fabric design technology for retaining good wicking and drying properties of the fabrics with thin fabric thickness is very important for obtaining high functional wear comfort fabrics. In addition, wicking and drying properties of the fabrics made of different fiber materials and with different yarns and fabric structures showed different results according to the measuring methods.

Quality changes of Korean ginseng on microwave drying were determined in terms of water activity, crude protein, crude lipid, crude ash, dielectric properties, content of sugar, ginsenoside composion, microstructure. Korean fresh ginseng were subjected to four different processing : 3 min microwave drying and 2 min holding-24 hrs drying (MWI), 5 min microwave drying and 2.5 min holding-24 hrs drying (MW2), 3 min microwave drying and 2 min holding-12 hrs after hot air drying for 12 hrs drying at $45^{\circ}C$ (MWH1), 5 min microwave drying and 2.5 min holding-12 hrs drying after hot air drying for 12 hrs at $45^{\circ}C$ (MWH2), Water content was decreased 14.33% without shrinkage and water activity was 0.57 after microwave drying. Permittivity was increased as water content increased. As temperature increased, permittivity was increased until $40^{\circ}C$ and fast decreased over $40^{\circ}C$. Content of ginsenoside for MW1 and MW2 was higher than that of MWH1 and MWH2. Data of free sugar showed that there was no significant difference in each treatment. The MW2 dried ginseng showed a more compact structure than the MWH2 ginseng.

We investigated changes in the physicochemical characteristics and functional components of the Saengsik cereal grains-milled rice, brown rice, glutinous rice, and barley- by washing with electrolyzed water. There were no changes in the composition of all cereal grains that was dried with hot-air and freeze-dried after being washed with electrolyzed water. The L and a values were not affected by drying in milled rice, brown rice, glutinous rice, or barley, but the b value increased in milled rice and glutinous rice-this increase was greater with hot-air drying than with freeze-drying. The dietary fiber content of the all cereals increased with hot-air drying. The niacin content decreased in all cereals; the extent of this change was greater with hot-air drying than with freeze-drying. The ${\beta}-glucan$ content of barley was higher in samples that underwent freeze-drying than in those treated by hot-air drying, but was not affected by washing with electrolyzed water. Thus, other than a change in color for milled and glutinous rice, no changes in the physicochemical characteristics and functional components these products were observed with freeze-drying. Data indicate that the electrolyzed water washing could be effectively used as pasteurization step in the uncooked cereal grains.
