dc.description | Based on the given results, it can be concluded that sugar beet molasses is aneffective osmotic solution for the osmotic treatment of peach samples . During theosmotic treatment of peach samples, the water-removing process was the mostintensive at the beginning in all osmotic solutions . After 3 hours, it tended to slow down; therefore, 3 hours could be set as the processing time for the osmotictreatment of the peach . Osmotic dehydration provides a semi-product, and thedesired final product is obtained in the second drying step using other dyingmethods . The PCA of the mass transfer rate parameters, weight reduction, anddehydration efficiency index of peach samples explained that the first two principalcomponents summarized 81 .93% of the total variance in the observed parameters | en_US |
dc.description.abstract | The highest-quality peaches [Prunus persica (L .) Batsch] are cultivatedin areas with sunny summers, therefore the territory of the AutonomousProvince of Vojvodina is a favourable region for their production . Peaches areusually consumed fresh, canned, or dried and represent a great source of theessential nutrients . Osmotic dehydration is a well-known preservation methodthat relies on mild temperatures and requires low energy . Research conductedat the Faculty of Technology Novi Sad has introduced sugar beet molasses asan efficient osmotic solution for drying various food samples. In this research,peach samples were osmotically treated in sugar beet molasses, and the goal wasto investigate the impact of different solution concentrations, temperatures, andimmersion time on the mass transfer rate and the efficiency of treatment. Theresults have shown that the mass transfer rate during the osmotic treatment ofpeach samples in sugar beet molasses was the most intensive at the beginning ofthe process, at the highest solution concertation, and at the highest temperature .In accordance with the results, diffusion occurred most rapidly during the firstthree hours of the process; therefore, processing time can be reduced | en_US |
