Author(s): Uttam Kumar, SK Jain, Shalini Pilania and PS Champawat
Abstract: The increasing consumption of animal products will give rise to a huge demand of animal feed. Meeting this demand will be a challenge, given the scarcity of natural resources such as land and water. The major waste produced includes the organic waste such as peel, stem, core, seeds and pomace. In case of aonla pomace sample, drying time at 45, 55 and 65 °C was 210, 180 and 165 min respectively. Moisture loss was found to be temperature dependent and slow at lower temperature and took more time as compared to drying at higher temperatures. It can also be observed from these curves that the drying time decreased with increase in drying air temperature.
