Efficiency of air dehumidification on the drying process in a food plant
Efficacité de deshumidification d'air sur le séchage dans un atelier de production des produits alimentaires
Résumé
To reduce the proliferation of bacteria inside a food plant, cleaning and disinfection are performed every day. These operations are followed by drying which has to be as quick as possible. This study shows the influence of a dehumidifier on the water mass evolutions on the surfaces such as floor, wall and equipment during the drying of a food plant. The temperature, relative humidity and water mass evolution during drying period were monitored in a food plant running under two conditions: with and without dehumidifier. The results comparison shows that drying rate is about 1.5 times higher with dehumidifier.
