    Abstract

    The main purpose of this work was to study the effect of carrier agents on the drying capability and the qualities of tamarind powder produced by a drum dryer. Two popular carrier agents, namely maltodextrin and modified starch, were applied to tamarind juice at juice-to-carrier-agent ratios of 1:0.3, 1:0.4, 1:0.5, 1:0.6, 1:0.7 and 1:0.8 (w/w). A double drum dryer was employed in this work at a drying temperature of 140C, drum rotational speed of 0.50 rpm and gap between drums of 0.15 mm. The efficiency of carrier agent was evaluated by the capability of drying and product qualities such as product recovery, bulk density, total solid, moisture content and color difference. The results of the experiment indicated that the ratio of the carrier agent affected the drying capability. The tamarind powder were easily removed from the drums by doctor blades without sticking at the lowest ratios of moltodextrin and modified starch of 1:0.6 and 1:0.4, respectively. Furthermore, when considering the qualities of tamarind powder, as a carrier modified starch led to better tamarind powder qualities than maltodextrin

    Keywords: Tamarind, Carrier agents, Drum drier

    1 Introduction

    Tamarind is one of the most important fruits of Thailand with the total production over 100,000 tons a year. Tamarind juice is an essential ingredient that provides the inimitable sour taste in many kinds of Thai food (Jittanit et al., 2011). However, the use of the fresh pulp still has many disadvantages due to its short shelf-life of about 6-8 months and, high cost of transportation. In addition, preparation for cooking is rather difficult. To overcome the aforementioned problems, a method of transforming tamarind paste into powder by a drum dryer is proposed.

    A drum dryer consists of two hollow cylinders rotating in opposite directions. The drums are heated by high temperature of saturated steam inside. A thin film of solution is coated on the outside surface of a heated drum and subsequent removal of the film of dry solids by applying the doctor blade. Drum drying is commonly used in production of low moisture baby foods and fruit powder. It is a technique widely used in the food industry

    to produce food powder particularly for heat sensitive products where short time high temperature drying is permissible (Nastaj, 2000). Additionally, Sunee (2008) stated that production of azuki bean powder using drum drying is advantageous because it can save time in product preparation, save storage space and convenie-nce to the users. Drum drying is a low cost and easy production process (Russamon, 1999).

    Fruit juices are very difficult dried with a drum dryer because of the presence of low molecular weight sugars and acids, which have a low glass transition temperature, and high hygroscopicity (Jaya and Das, 2004). While under drum drying temperatures, they tend to stick to the surface of the drum and cannot be removed from the drums by doctor blades (Bhandari and Howes, 2005). Some possible consequences are related to impaired product stability, decreased yields (because of stickiness on the surface of the drum), and even operating problems to the dryer (Bhandari et al., 1997). Such problems can be alleviated by adding carrier agents,

  • Thai Society of Agricultural Engineering Journal Vol. 21 No. 1 (2015), 1-6

    2

    which are high molecular weight, such as maltodextrin (MD), which decrease powder hygroscopicity and increasing the glass transition temperature (Silva et al., 2006). Additionally, Carneiro et al. (2013) reported MD is a relatively low cost and low viscosity at high solids concentrations. However, the biggest problem of this carrier is its low emulsifying capacity. Therefore, it is common to use MD in combination with other carriers, such as gum arabic (Fernandes et al., 2008) or modied starch (Bule et al., 2010) in order to obtain an effective juice powder by drum drying. Oliveira et al. (2009) pointed out that gum arabic has a glass transition temperature higher than MD and is very efficient in flavour retention, which suggests that it is probably reducing powder hygroscopicity more effectively than MD, but gum arabic is expensive. So, this motivated researchers to look for materials to replace it. Modified starch (MS), a carbohydrate that changes the native starchs property in accordance with a certain application. Such as modified starch can be used to replace other substances, like emulsifiers. Non-polar modified starch can act as an emulsifier, offering stable emulsions.

    The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of MD and MS as carrier agents on the capability of drying and the quality of drum dried tamarind powder.

    2 Materials and Methods

    2.1 Materials Tamarind flesh (Tamarindus indica L.) was

    purchased from a local market in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand. MD with dextrose equivalent of 10-12, pH of 4.5-6.5 and moisture content of 5.0-6.0% was purchased from Nutrition SC CO., LTD., Nakhonpathom, Thailand. MS with pH of 4.0-6.0 and moisture content of 4.0-8.0% was purchased from Questex CO., LTD., Sumutprakarn, Thailand. 2.2 Tamarind Juice Preparation

    Tamarind flesh was deseeded and mixed with hot water at 80C at a ratio of 1:5 (w/w). The mixture was squeezed into tamarind paste. Then, the juice was screened with the two-layer of cheesecloth to discard the residues. The total soluble solid of juice was determined and adjusted to be 12oBrix. After that, either MD or MS was added as a carrier agent to the juice at

    juice-to-carrier-agent ratios of 1:0.3, 1:0.4, 1:0.5, 1:0.6, 1:0.7 and 1:0.8 (w/w). The initial ratio of 1:0.3 was used by Kanniga (2006). Each the sample feed 500 ml. 2.3 Drum Dryer Setting

    A double drum dryer with nip feed was employed in this work shown in Figure 1. The dryer, which consists of five main parts. The Control box was a box to control the drum outside surface temperature and drum speed of the rollers were 140C and 0.50 rpm, respectively. Cylindrical hollow rollers made of stainless steel had a diameter of 15 cm, a length of 20 cm and a gap between drums of 0.15 mm. Doctor blades made of stainless steel were used for scraping food through the process of drying out. An electric motor of 1 HP was used to drive the machine. Finally, the structure that supports the weight of the whole machine.

    2.4 Drying Experiments The drying experiments were carried out using the

    randomized complete block design of two carrier agent (MD and MS), and six ratios of tamarind juice and carrier agent (1:0.3, 1:0.4, 1:0.5, 1:0.6, 1:0.7 and 1:0.8 w/w). At the end of drying, the tamarind powder was collected, weighed and kept in the sealed container for determination of the qualities. The procedure for the raw material preparation until the drying of tamarind is shown in Figure 2.

    procedure.

    2.5 Quality Determination The qualities of tamarind samples, which included

    tamarind juice, in terms of total solid, moisture content, total acidity and color, were measured. For the tamarind powder, product recovery, bulk density, total solid, moisture content and color were measured. Apart from that, for the reconstituted tamarind powder were subjected to the determination of solubility, total acidity and color. Then all of qualities will be measured in 3 replicates.

    Product recovery was determined using the ratio in the weights of dry solid of tamarind juice and powder (Kanniga, 2006). The product recovery was calculated as:

    100ab

    MProduct recovery xM

    (1)

    where Ma and Mb are the weights (g) of dry solid of tamarind powder leaving the dryer and tamarind juice being fed into the dryer, respectively.

    Bulk density of tamarind powder was determined using tamarind powder into the cylinder of known volume, then placing a cylinder with a tamarind powder and dropped by gravity at a distance of 0.1 m from the cylinder. After that, dropped tamarind powder until overflowing cylinder and then swept to the mouth of the cylinder smooth cylinder surface (Pao., 2005). The bulk density was calculated by using the equation as follows:

    mBulk density

    v (2)

    where m is the mass of tamarind powder (kg) and v is the volume of the cylinder (m3).

    Total acidity of the tamarind was determined using the tamarind 50 ml into a 250 ml erlenmeyer flask and add 200 ml of distilled water, then 3-5 drop of 1% phenolpthalein were added as an indicator. After that, the mixture was titrated with a standard solution 0.1 N of NaOH until at the endpoint. The solution was indicated by color change to light pink (Pao., 2005). The total acidity was calculated as:

    1001000

    wV x N x M xTotal acidityU

    (3)

    where V is the volume of NaOH which was used in the titration until at endpoint (ml), N is the normality of NaOH, Mw is the molecular weight of tartaric acid = 150, U is the weight of the sample used in the titration (g).

    Total solid and moisture content of tamarind was determined using the convection oven method (AOAC, 1984). Samples were dried in an oven at 105C for 24 h. The total solid content and moisture content of tamarind in wet basis were calculated by using the equation as follows: Samples were dried in an oven at 105C for 24 h. The total solid content and moisture content of tamarind in wet basis were calculated by using the equation as follows:

    (5)

    where W1 is the initial weight of moisture can (g), W2 is the weight of moisture can and tamarind before drying (g), and W3 is the weight of moisture can and tamarind after drying (g).

    The color of the tamarind juice was determined using Hunter Lab colorimeter in terms of the total color change between the juice and the reconstituted powder. The color was expressed in terms of L (lightness), a (redness) and b (yellowness) (Shittu and Lawal, 2007). The change in the color was calculated by using the following equation:

    2 2 20 0 0( ) ( ) ( )c p p pE L L a a b b (6)

    where L0, a0 and b0 are the color values of the tamarind juice, and Lp, ap and bp are the color values of the reconstituted powder.

    Solubility of tamarind powder was determined by using about 1 g of each sample which were suspended

  • Thai Society of Agricultural Engineering Journal Vol. 21 No. 1 (2015), 1-6

    4

    in 10 ml of water at 30C in a centrifuge tube. The suspension was stirred intermittently for 30 min before it was centrifuged at 3,000 rpm for 10 min. After that, the supernatant was poured into a moisture can and dried in an oven at 105C for 24 h (Jaya and Das, 2004). The dry basis solubility of tamarind powder was calculated by using the following equation:

    100sp

    MSolubility xM

    (7)

    where Ms is the weight of dry solid of supernatant (g), and Mp is the weight of tamarind powder (g). 2.6 Statistical Analysis

    Each tamarind powder quality parameter reflected the mean of three replicates. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS. The statistical significance was determined by analysis of variance (ANOVA). The least significant difference of p

    was diluted by the carrier prior to drying. Apart from that, MD is a carrier with had lower of total acidity than MS.

    Figure 5 The total acidity of reconstituted tamarind

    powder.

    The effect of the different carriers used to produce the tamarind powder on moisture content is shown in Figure 6. Moisture content is an important powder property, which is related to the drying efficiency. The moisture content of tamarind powder varied from 2.50% to 4.31%, which was close to the moisture content of spray dried blackberry (Ferrari et al., 2012). Increasing the ratio of the carrier resulted in a decrease in the moisture content due to high solid ratio. However, the moisture content of MD was more than MS. This behavior was probably due to the differences between the chemical structures of the carriers (Yousefi et al., 2011).

    Figure 6 The moisture content of tamarind powder.

    The total color change of reconstituted tamarind powder increased as the ratio of MD increased from 30% to 50%, then the total color change are not different (Figure 7). Similarly, the ratio of MS from 40% to 80%, because the dried product could be removed from the drums by doctor blades.

    The effect of the different carriers used to produce the tamarind powder on solubility is shown in Figure 8. No significant differences was found in powder solubility

    for MD and MS. All of the powder samples, except the one produced from MD at the 1:0.3 ratio, had a high degree of solubility, reaching values above 80% (Table 1).

    the fresh juice and the reconstituted powder.

    3.4 Statistical Analysis Base on the statistic analysis (Table 1), while all

    other quality parameters of different samples were significantly different (p

    4 Conclusions

    The effect of the ratio of carriers on the drying behavior and quality were different for different parameters. The substance takes to make tamarind powder can be removed from the drums by doctor blades and has product recovery of more than 80%

    when 60% MD and 40% MS was used as carrier. And it can be concluded that using MS as carrier leads to better quality of tamarind powder (such as bulk density, total acidity and moisture content) than using MD as the carrier. However, with the high cost of MS, using these carriers in combination would be preferred.

    Abstract

    Fresh sweet corn shelling machine was designed and assembled to study the parameters effect on shelling of Hybrix 10 variety without cutting corn germ. The shelling process is divided into two parts; using grooving sets for gouging fresh sweet corn and shelling machine for kernels shelling. This machine can operate 1 corn each time and require 2 operators. The main part of the grooving set is open groove roller and the grooving knife. The operation begins as groove roller will cut open groove of kernels to help remove easier with the width of the slit about 2 cm whereas the grooving knife will slash the kernels out. Moreover, the main of shelling machine is the shelling set operated to move alternation and pushes the kernels out of the core. The parameters were studied follow by 1) type of shelling rubber; type I and type II, 2) angle of shelling; 36, 42 and 48 respectively, and 3) speed of shelling rubber revolution; 40, 50 and 60 rpm respectively. From this experiment showed that the shelling rubber type II gave the better shelling result than shelling rubber type I. The result from shelling rubber type II, angle 36 with speed at 60 rpm had an average of kernels damage at 10.02%. The time and power consumption were used for shelling had averages of 251.94 s/ears and 14.03 W/ears respectively.

    Abstract This study aimed to determine the effects of power level and sample mass on moisture ratio of holy basil

    leaves undergoing microwave drying process. Various microwave power levels ranging from to 164 to 752 W were used for drying of 30 g of holy basil leaves. To investigate the effect of sample mass on drying, the samples in the range of 30 to 90 g were dried at microwave power level of 752 W dried holy basil leaves to reduce the moisture content from 5.190. 13 gwater gdry matter-1 to 0.060.02 gwater gdry matter-1 . Mathematical models including the Newton, Henderson and Pabis, Page, Wang and Singh and Logarithmic models were evaluated for describing the drying kinetics under various microwave drying conditions, Pages model gave a better fit for all drying conditions used as

    the highest coefficient of determination (R2), the least chi-square (2 ) , the lowest root mean square error (RMSE) and mean bias error (MBE). The effective diffusivity varied from 4.15x10-11 - 2.76 x10-10 m2/s and the activation energy for microwave drying of holy basil leaves was 19 . 8 5 W g-1 which was well explained by an exponential expression based on the Arrhenius models.

    Abstract

    Due to the energy crisis, renewable energy production has been promoted in Thailand such as gasification and biogas production for electric power. Recently, the Department of Alternative Energy Development and Efficiency, Ministry of Energy has put emphases on the development of renewable energy from crops such as Napier, rice straw etc. The production of alternative energy plants suitable for growing area would be the way to increase productivity. Therefore, the production of Erianthus sp. (ThE98-242) on a commercial scale was studied. The chemical composition of 6-month old Erianthus sp. showed C, H, N, S and O contents of 45.232, 6.333, 0.678, 0.201 and 47.557%, respectively. This sample could yeild biogas production of approximately 165.46 l.kg-1 along with degradable organic matter of 90% at moisture content of 54.5%, which in total could provide biogas production of 1,636.40 m3.Rai-1 or electricity generation of 1,963.68 kw-h.Rai-1. The CH4 and CO2 contents in the biogas were 53.5 and 46.50%, respectively. The Erianthus sp. plated for 7 months with different plant spaces of 0.5, 0.75 and 1.0 m yielded dried matter of 4.95, 3.45 and 2.9 Ton.Rai-1, respectively.

    Abstract

    This paper is written concerning the curriculums of Agricultural Engineering in Thailand. The Agricultural Engineering curriculums of Kasetsart University, King Mongkut's Institue of Technology Ladkrabang and Khon Kaen University are described. The status of the graduates with the bachelor's degree in Agricultural Engineering from Kasetsart University are reported. The curriculum of Agricultural Engineering of China Agricultural University is also mentioned. The interesting aspect of the China Agricultural University curriculum is that the curriculum does not only focus on principles and theories, but also the engineering practices and experiments simultaneously. However, the pioneers of Biological and Agricultural Engineering curriculums would be Canada and the United States of America. It should be noted that the name, Agricultural Engineering, is considered part of the name, Biological Engineering.

    Abstract A dry lotus seed sheller was designed and fabricated to reduce shelling time and number of labor for the dry

    lotus seed shell removing. The prototype consisted of main frame, feeding unit, 2 sizes of shelling unit; the 10.5 and 11.5 mm cylinder cutting balde were installed in first and second shelling unit, respectively, the power transmission unit, and 2 hp electric motor was used as a prime mover. The dry lotus seeds were fed manually into feeding chute at the top of the machine, then were conveyed to shelling unit by seed feeder, and left through in front of the machine after shelling. Testing results indicated that the best shelling quality was obtained when operated at 13.3 mm s-1 piercing rod speed. Working capacity was found to be 1.30.1 kg hr-1, the percentage of shelling and seeds damaged of the first shelling unit were 75.76.4 and 18.20.7%, the percentage of shelling and seeds damaged of the second shelling unit were 73.34 .0% and 20.21.8%, and consumed 0 .52 kW-hr of energy. Based on the engineering economical analysis, indicated that the operating cost was 24 Bath kg-1, payback period 3 months and the break-even point of the machine was 40 hr year-1 at the annual use of 1,200 hr year-1.

    Abstract

    The purpose of this study is to simulate the hydrodynamic and sediment transport conditions in Pasak river between a downstream portion of Rama XI dam and a confluence of Chao Phraya river by an application of MIKE21-HD/ST model. First, observed data of river cross section, discharge, water level, and sediment in Pasak river were collected during year 2013-2014. The result of calibration and verification of MIKE21-HD along Pasak river found that the Manningn roughness coefficient for the whole river is equal to 0.0286, which gave the calculated water level close to the observed values at Nakhon Luang station. It provides statistical index of R2 and RMSE

    equal to 0.85 and 0.17 m, respectively. The MIKE21-ST in conjugate with MIKE21-HD models were calibrated using steady state condition in the range of discharge between 1 0 0 to 7 5 0 m3 s-1 and measured soil sediment in four places along the river. It found that the average grain size was around 0.12 mm, unit weight of sediment equal to 2,650 kg m-3 , average porosity equal to 0.4 , and settling velocity equal to 0.0109 m s-1 . The calibration results showed that the rate of bed level change has a sedimentation rate in the range of 0.66 to 0.95 m yr-1 and the sedimentation rate is directly proportional to the flow rate which corresponds to the results analyzed by the physical model. Finally, MIKE2 1 - HD/ST model was applied to analyze the annual sedimentation rate during year 2007 - 2012 by dividing into two case studies namely 1 ) steady flow boundary condition and 2 ) unsteady flow boundary condition. The result showed that case 1 the average annual sedimentation rate is around 0.76 m yr-1 while case 2 the average rate is around 0 . 22 m yr-1 . It will be seen that the sedimentation rate of steady flow is more than unsteady flow conditions on average approximately 29%. Since unsteady flow model simulation is more similar to the real flow condition in Pasak river. However, sedimentation rate obtained from mathematical models are significantly higher than the actual because of sediment load input to the model was an average throughout the river. In the fact that sediment load varies unequal both in each month and section of the river.
