Fibre and protein enriched chicken wheat crisps were evaluated for their adsorption behaviour at a temperature range of 5 °C - 40 °C and a water activity range of 0.1-0.9. Sigmoid type II isotherm was obtained for the product and the sorption data was fitted to 3 models namely BET, GAB, and Peleg model. Each model was statistically evaluated by means of root mean square (%) and coefficient of determination (R2). Peleg and GAB gave the best fits for the moisture sorption data evaluated on the basis of regression analyses and goodness of fit. Surface area of adsorption was evaluated using parameter values obtained from the BET model and the surface area decreased with increase in temperature. Equilibrium moisture content at a particular water activity and isosteric heat of sorption were seen to decrease with increasing temperature. We conclude that the chicken wheat crisps can be stored at 25 °C for a better shelf life.

AbstractThe moisture sorption characteristics of dakuwa at 10, 20, 30 and 400°C were studied. The experimental sorption data obtained were applied to BET, GAB, Oswin and Henderson equations to test fitness of the equations to moisture sorption of dakuwa. The sorption isotherms of dakuwa were type III isotherms (J shaped), and the equilibrium moisture content increased with increasing water activity but decreased with increasing temperature. The BET and GAB monolayer moisture contents all decreased with increasing temperature. For adsorption, the BET monolayer was higher (3.163–4.158 g/100 g solid) than that of GAB (2.931–3.728 g/100 g solid), but for desorption, the GAB monolayer (4.792–7.741 g/100 g solid) was higher than that of BET (3.962–4.480 g/100 g solid). Evaluation of goodness of fit of models revealed that moisture sorption of dakuwa was best modelled by GAB equation.

Moisture sorption isotherms of Granny Smith apples hot-air dried and texturized by Controlled Sudden Decompression (Détente Instantannée Contrôlée DIC®) were determined and compared using a gravimetric method. The DIC has been developed to confer a porous structure to partially dehydrated foods by expanding them and facilitating the drying process at lower water content. The samples were stored in a chamber; the relative humidity is controlled by an atomizing humidifier at 20, 30 and 40°C, and relative humidities ranging from 10% to 90%. The sorption capacity decreased with increasing temperature at a given water activity. The hysteresis effect was not significant for both of the dried and texturized apples. The experimental sorption data were fitted to 8 various isotherm models including two parameter relationships (BET, Halsey, Smith, Henderson, Oswin), three parameter equations (Ferro-Fontan, GAB) and four parameter equations (Peleg). A non-linear least square regression software was used to evaluate the model's constants. The goodness of fit of each isotherm was quantified through the mean relative percentage deviation modulus E. The Ferro-Fontan, Peleg, GAB and Oswin equations were best for characterizing the sorption behaviour of Granny Smith apples for a whole range of temperatures and water activities studied. The surface area corresponding to the monolayer was determined for the texturized apples and compared to the dried samples. The results showed that the treatment by DIC increases the surface area of apples. For understanding the water properties and calculating the energy requirements phenomena, net isosteric heat was evaluated by the applying Clausius-Clapeyron equation.

Abstract Moisture sorption isotherms for pistachio powder were determined by gravimetric method at temperatures of 15, 25, 35 and 40°C. A selected mathematical models were tested to determine the best suitable model to predict isotherm curve. The results show that Caurie model had the most satisfactory goodness of fit. Also, another purpose of this research was to introduce a new methodology to determine the amount of hysteresis at different temperatures by using best predictive model of isotherm curve based on definite integration method. The results demonstrated that maximum hysteresis is related to the multi-layer water (in the range of water activity 0.2-0.6) which corresponds to the capillary condensation region and this phenomenon decreases with increasing temperature.

Abstract In this study the moisture sorption isotherm of grape seed was determined by using a static gravimetric method at 35-65°C and 0.108-0.821 water activity range. The sorption isotherms were found to be typical sigmoid shape of most food materials. Five models including the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (2-parameter), Guggenheim, Anderson and De Boer (3-parameter), Oswin (2-parameter), Ferro-Fontan (3-parameter) and Peleg (4-parameter) models were considered to fit the experimental data. The Ferro- Fontan and Peleg equations (at three temperatures 35, 45, 65°C) having R2 greater than 0.97 and lower values of standard error of estimate and deviation modulus gave the best fit of the experimental data throughout the entire range of water activity. The net isosteric heat of sorption, calculated by Calusius-Clapeyron equation on experimental data, was found to be a polynomial and exponential function of equilibrium moisture content within the temperature range investigated.

Abstract Moisture sorption isotherms of green soybean seeds were determined by static gravimetric method and water activity ranging from 0.11to 0.94 at 20, 30 and 40°C. The optimal sorption model of green soybean was determined by using nonlinear regression method. Modified BET multilayer sorption theory model parameters at different temperatures were calculated, isosteric sorption heat was derived by the water activity sorption isosteric model. Results indicated that sorption isotherms were belong to type III behaviour, a notable hysteresis effect was observed, Green soybean monolayer saturated sorption capacity was greater in desorption process than that of adsorption. The monolayer saturated sorption capacity decreased with increasing temperature, while the number of multilayer had a reverse trend with the monolayer saturated sorption capacity, the optimal sorption isotherm model for green soybean is Halsey model, The thermodynamic parameters including net isosteric heat of adsorption and desorption calculated at 40°C were 105.2-1865.4 kJ/kg and 111.62-1939.0 kJ/kg with equilibrium moisture content between 5% and 32% (d.b.), respectively. The net isosteric heat of sorption decreased with increasing equilibrium moisture content.

SummaryMoisture sorption isotherms of khoa were determined at 15, 25, 35 and 45 °C over a water activity (aw) range of O·l 1–0·97. The isotherms were sigmoid (Type II) and were fitted to the Guggenheim–Anderson–de Boer (GAB) equation (Bizot, 1983). The aw of freshly made khoa was found to be 0·96. The aw of khoa increased with increasing temperature up to 0·9; above this the effect of temperature on aw diminished. The monolayer moisture content of khoa decreased with increasing temperature. The equations describing the temperature dependence of GAB constants were determined in the form of the Clausius–Clapeyron equation. The net isosteric heat of desorption of khoa decreased rapidly until a moisture level of 0·1 g/g solids, and approached a constant value of 0·43 kJ/mol above a moisture level of 0·25 g/g solids.

CO2 adsorption on K exchanged NaX zeolites, and metal organic frameworks (MOFs), namely Cu-BTC and MIL53 (Al) was studied at 5 °C and 25 °C.  Exchange via ultrasonic and traditional methods, was conducted at 50 °C and 70 °C. The maximum replacement of Na+ ion with K+ ion in the extra framework of zeolite was increased from 76% to 83% with increasing temperature from 50 °C to 70 °C in the ultrasonic method which is more effective than traditional one. Compared with the zeolites, the MOF adsorbents used in this work have higher Langmuir specific surface area values namely 1278, 1473 and about 1000 m2/g for MIL 53, Cu-BTC and zeolite adsorbents respectively. The resulting CO2 isotherms can be well represented by the Toth equation. Comparison of the isosteric heat of adsorption at zero loading shows that CO2 was adsorbed more weakly on MOFs than zeolites.

Moisture sorption isotherms of the habanero pepper powder were determined using the Dynamic Vapor Sorption (DVS) method at 20, 25, 35, 45 and 55 °C in a range of water activity from 0.10 to 0.90 at which the processes of drying, packing and storage of habanero pepper are developed. The sorption capacity decreased with increasing temperature at a given water activity and the sorption isotherms showed a sigmoid form (Type II). The hysteresis phenomenon was observed in the sorption isotherms at all temperatures studied and it was more pronounced at temperatures high. The experimental sorption curves were fitting to the GAB, BET and Oswin models. It was concluded that the models that best describe the adsorption and desorption data for habanero pepper dehydrated powder were the GAB and Oswin models.  The isosteric heat of water sorption was calculated with the moisture content data in equilibrium. The desorption isotherms present a higher isosteric heat in relation to the adsorption isotherms. In both, the isosteric heat decreased as the moisture content increased.

Moisture sorption isotherms of Thai Jasmine rice crackers were determined at 30, 45 and 60°C over a water activity range of 0.10 to 0.95 using a static gravimetric technique. Moisture sorption isotherms of rice crackers exhibited the sigmoid (Type II) shape. The moisture content of rice crackers decreased as temperature increased at a given water activity of the storage environment. The Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) and Guggenheim-Anderson-de Boer (GAB) models were applied to fit the experimental data. The isosteric heat of sorption at different moisture levels was also determined using the Clausius–Clapeyron thermodynamic equation. A nonlinear regression analysis method was determined to evaluate the parameters of sorption equations. The criteria used to evaluate the goodness of fit of each model were the mean relative percentage deviation modulus (E) and the percentage root mean square error (RMSE). The more extended range of application of the GAB equation over the BET equation was evident. The GAB model gave the best fit to the experimental sorption data for a wide range of water activity (0.10–0.95) while the BET model gave the best fit for a water activity range of less than 0.60. The GAB model is considered suitable to predict the moisture sorption isotherm of rice crackers since it gave low E and RMSE values. The heat of sorption values of rice crackers were found to be large at low moisture content and decreased with an increase in food moisture content.
