| Summary, etc. |
Moringa oleifera has a long history of therapeutic usage in ayurvedic medicine and other complementary and alternative medicine systems. Among its various parts, Moringa pods have gained attention for their nutritional contents. Understanding the interplay between drying conditions and the unique qualities of M. oleifera- PKM 1 variety is vital for optimizing drying processes while preserving their nutritional and medicinal value. This study investigates the drying kinetics of Moringa oleifera- PKM1 flesh and seeds using a heat pump dryer, focusing on the effects of temperature, relative humidity, and airflow velocity. The research aims to determine the optimal maturity stage for drying Moringa oleifera to preserve color, rehydration potential, and phytochemical content. Experiments were conducted with samples at 4, 5, and 6 weeks of maturity, subjected to various drying conditions. Results indicate that the 4-week maturity stage offers the best quality, maintaining color retention and phytochemical properties. The accurate fit for predicting the drying behavior across all stages based on the highest coefficient of determination (R²) and lowest RMSE with values of these findings can inform improved drying techniques, enhancing the quality and nutritional value of dried Moringa products. The Page model yielded R² values of 0.995, 0.999, and 0.996 for 4-, 5-, and 6-week maturities of flesh, respectively. For M. oleifera seed, provided the best prediction with R² values of 0.998, 0.998, and 0.997 for the respective maturities. Additionally, Page’s model predicted the lowest RSME values for both flesh and seed at 4-, 5-, and 6-week maturities, with values of 0.003, 0.014, and 0.016, respectively. Similarly, for M. oleifera seed, with RSME values of 0.007, 0.015., and 0.022, respectively. |
