Dried sugar–egg powders, obtained from a commercial Canadian source, were adjusted to 1.4, 2.8, and 3.2% moisture and stored at 40°, 80°, and 120° F. from 1 to 52 weeks. Quality of the powder was assessed by measurement of fluorescence, potassium chloride value, pH, and foaming volume. The rate of deterioration increased with an increase in moisture content at 80° and 120° F. The effect of moisture content on fluorescence and potassium chloride values was negligible at 40° F., but high moisture in powders stored at this temperature accelerated the development of acidity and the loss in baking quality as assessed by foaming volume.Packing in carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and in vacuo had a slight beneficial effect on dried sugar–egg powder.

Dried whole egg powders, obtained from three different manufacturers, were adjusted to contain from 2 to 8.5% moisture, and held at temperatures ranging from 7.1° to 43.3 °C. Quality was assessed by determination of the fluorescence, potassium chloride, and refractometric values.Temperature was the most important single factor studied in affecting the keeping quality of dried egg. However, at all temperatures the rate of deterioration increased with increase in the moisture content. To maintain quality during storage and transport, dried egg should contain not more than 5% moisture and preferably 2% or less.

The relation between palatability and fluorescence value previously established for 33 samples of plain egg powder, was substantiated by comparisons for 118 samples. Fluorescence measurements were more readily reproduced among various laboratories than measurements of potassium chloride value. Batter density measurements were found to be a satisfactory measure of the baking quality of sugar–egg powder and were more convenient than the baking of test cakes. Particle size of spray-dried sugar–egg powder was also related to baking quality; powder falling between 50 and 200 mesh (U.S. Bureau of Standards) yielded the lightest sponge goods.

The moisture content of densified biomass is a limit parameter influencing the quality of the solid biofuel. It influences its calorific value, density, mechanical strength and dimensional stability as well as the production process of this biofuel. The paper deals with the experimental research of the effect of moisture content of densified material on the final quality of biofuel in the form of logs. Experiments based on the single-axis densification of spruce sawdust were realized by hydraulic piston press, where the densified logs were produced under room temperature. The effect of moisture content on the quality properties of the logs, including density, change of moisture, expansion and physical changes, were studied. The results show the necessary moisture ranges for producing good-quality logs. The experiments were evaluated and the moisture content of the tested material was optimized to achieve the optimum value for the best quality of the solid biofuel.

Acidification of liquid egg prior to drying did not improve subsequent storage life, although pH measurements showed that powder from untreated egg became acid more rapidly during storage. Reduction in the moisture content (total volatiles) from 4.7 to 3.0% doubled, and reduction from 4.7 to 1.7% tripled, the storage life of dried whole egg powder as assessed by fluorescence tests. The maximum storage life predicted for the low moisture powder by this test was only 36 wk. at 27 °C. and 5 wk. at 38 °C. Palatability tests suggested that the product was somewhat less perishable, as a powder of 1.7% moisture was considered fit for use as an egg dish after 64 wk. at 27 °C. Gas-packing low moisture powders in an atmosphere of carbon dioxide appeared to be slightly more effective as a means of retaining palatability than packing in an atmosphere of air or nitrogen, but was particularly effective in preventing loss of solubility (assessed by potassium chloride values) during storage.

Liquid whole egg was spray dried in a small, laboratory drier at various flow rates of liquid egg and at different inlet and exhaust air temperatures. Quality of the powder, as assessed by chemical methods, palatability, and baking tests, was progressively improved as the exhaust air temperature was lowered. Inlet air temperatures above 107 °C. (225° F.) had a deleterious effect. Lowering the drying temperature, however, had an adverse effect on the rate of production.
