drying phase Explanation: Drying is a mass transfer process consisting of the removal of water or another solute [1] by evaporation from a solid, semi-solid or liquid. The solute to be removed is almost always water, especially so in bioproducts like food, grains, and pharmaceuticals like vaccines. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drying |
