Abstract :
[en] Vacuum freeze-drying of frozen wet papers was investigated experimentally.
A freeze-drying facility was built to study the process by monitoring the various
physical parameters (pressure, sample temperature, heater temperature, water content
of the sample and cold panel temperature). A simple phenomenological model was
developed to explain experimental results. The values of the physical parameters were
optimized to make the process cost effective.
