How much dried product you get from fresh raw material by moisture, and how much water must be evaporated.
Approximate calculation using a simplified model: for designing equipment and process modes, consult a technologist.
Shows how much dried product you get from fresh raw material by initial and final moisture, how much water must be evaporated and how much fresh raw material goes into a kilogram of dried.
Preparation waste is taken into account: peeling, core or pit removal. This is a simplified water balance; the calculator does not calculate drying time and mode.
The calculations are approximate: they help to assess the process and compare options, but do not replace a process design and trials on a specific raw material. This section is for reference only and contains no commercial offers.
