Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fruit and vegetable drying, and in particular relates to energy-saving and high-efficiency fruit and vegetable dehydration drying equipment and a drying method. Background technique [0002] Vacuum freeze-drying retains the color, flavor, nutrition and texture characteristics of the product to the greatest extent, and its product quality is considered to be the highest among all drying technologies. However, freeze-drying is a very time-consuming and energy-consuming process, and its low productivity and high cost limit its wide application in industry. In order to improve the above problems, microwave technology was introduced to assist freeze-drying. Microwave freeze-drying technology is based on freeze-drying, using a microwave generator instead of a traditional heating plate to provide sublimation latent heat to frozen materials, thereby dehydrating and drying. Microwaves act on objects mainly throu...
