Optimization of important drying parameters with PEF pretreatment was performed on Hermetia illucens larvae tissue. The study used a three-level factorial design of response surface methodology to vary specific PEF energy input and drying temperature. The findings suggest an optimal processing window for larvae drying.
Optimization of important drying parameters with PEF pretreatment was carried out usingHermetia illucenslarvae tissue. Three level factorial design of response surface methodology was used for the study varying specific PEF energy input 10-20 kJ/kg and drying temperature of 50-90 degrees C. Important averageH. illucenslarvae temperature during the drying process was obtained by numerical simulation from Luikov drying model. Consumption of drying energy was affected more by the drying temperature, than by the PEF energy. This indicated that range between 81 and 84 degrees C drying temperature and range from 11.2 to 13.1 kJ/kg of specific PEF energy input may be considered as optimal processing window for larvae drying.
