Experimental investigation of the drying kinetics of various types of materials was carried out in laboratory-scale dryers under different conditions of temperature, microwave heating power and pressure. Leather samples (mechanically and vacuum-dewatered bull napa and wet blue cutting), paperboards (grafopack, testliner), wood (alder, birch, willow) and two pharmaceutical powders (chlorpropamide and hydrochlorotiazide) were dried in a microwave dryer. Thin clay slabs, Al-Ni catalyst and chlorpropamide were dried in a convection dryer, while chlorpropamide and ketoprofen were dried in a vacuum dryer. In order to compare drying kinetics, experimentally obtained data, X = f(t), were correlated with the Lewis thin-layer equation, the modified Page equation and Fick's second law. The drying constant, effective diffusion coefficient, mass transfer coefficient and modified Page model parameters were estimated by fitting the selected mathematical models to experimental data. High levels of correlation between measured and calculated data were obtained for all materials and dryers using modified Page model. The application of the Lewis and Fick's equation is justified only for drying of clay, catalyst and leather. Mass transfer coefficient depends linearly on the drying constant. The relation between the modified Page model parameter and the drying constant can be represented by a unique power function. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
