Abstract

In this paper a Radio Frequency (RF) method for drying defeated soy flower is developed using a class E amplifier. The raw and uncooked soy flour contains a few undesirable inherent soybean enzymes. Minimizing the content and effect of these enzymes usually is done through “drying/heating” methods. The method used in this study is “RF dielectric heating”. Modelling, simulation and implementation results complete the paper.
