Abstract

Chanana is a medicinal plant studied in Brail as a treatment for diseases. In medicinl species, it is not possible for industries to use fresh plants, so the drying process is used. This work aimed to evaluate and model the curing kinetics curves of chanana leaves for the temperature ranges of 40, 50 and 60ºC. The curves were obtained using certain semi-empirical models. The Peleg model fitted better to the experimental data, with na average value of determination coefficient (R2) of 0,98 and na average relative adjustment error (MRE) of 0,057.
