With the frequent problem of unsold fruits in China in recent years, it is urgent to explore the path of deep processing in the fruit industry. Preserved fruits, also known as candied fruits“ Fruits;. It is a food made from fruits and vegetables such as peaches, apricots, plums, dates, winter melons, ginger, etc., pickled with sugar or honey and processed. In addition to being eaten directly as snacks or snacks, candied fruits can also be put on cakes, biscuits and other Dim sum as decorations. Rich aroma, sweet and delicious taste, durable storage, all thanks to the fruit dryer.

In the process of fruit processing and production, in addition to boiling techniques, the most important thing is fruit drying. After picking fresh fruits from the branches, they undergo a simple process of removing sepals, stems, cores, and slices before being dried. During the drying process, it is necessary to maintain the original flavor and appropriate size and shape of the fruit as much as possible. After soaking and boiling, the dried fruit still needs to be dried again. stayDry at a constant temperature of 60-70 ℃ for about 1 hour. The dried fruit is moderately soft and hard, with a moisture content of about 20-25%, a bright and shiny appearance, and a moderate sweetness.

The traditional method of sun drying fruits and vegetables is greatly affected by weather factors, resulting in mold growth or uneven drying. It is prone to secondary pollution during the drying process, and the drying site and equipment are subject to multiple limitations. Undoubtedly, traditional sun drying processing is no longer suitable for the needs of modern production, and drying machines and drying rooms have emerged. Compared to traditional air drying methods,“ Machine drying method; Not only does it take short time, save manpower and costs, but the baked fruits and vegetables are evenly polished, have a shiny appearance, are clean and hygienic, and have a particularly sweet taste. According to a survey, taking tomatoes as an example, the purchase price for one kilogram of tomatoes is 0.4 yuan, and for every 7 kilograms of tomatoes, 1 kilogram of dried tomatoes can be dried. The selling price for one kilogram of dried tomatoes is 10 yuan; 11 yuan. After calculating this account, the drying equipment has extended the industrial chain and contributed to the deep exploration of the value-added space of fruits and vegetables.

Problem. For example, how to solve the problems of drying different product categories, how to reduce nutrient loss during drying, and how to make drying equipment more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly, all require joint efforts from the drying equipment industry. In fruit and dried fruit collar“ Fresh” In the market environment of leisure food, there is great potential for the construction and research and development of drying equipment, and the market demand will also be worth looking forward to.

The use of fruit dryer technology marks a new direction and new field for fruit drying, which has a strong impact and challenge on traditional fruit drying methods and equipment. At the same time, the application of fruit dryers also conforms to the government's call for energy conservation and emission reduction, low-carbon production and life, conforms to the development of the times, and can be said to be unstoppableIt has played a significant role in both economic and social benefits, set an example for enterprises to implement and promote sustainable development goals and actions, and has strong persuasiveness, benefiting both themselves and the people.
