Author(s): Paresh B Zinzala, Dev Raj, BN Patel and Nilam Patel
Abstract: The present investigation entitled “Foam mat dehydration of bael (Aegle marmelos L.)pulp for powder preparation†was aimed to standardize the process for foam mat drying of bael pulp for preparation of powder. Experiment was conducted for foam mat drying of bael pulp using different concentration of low, medium and high viscous CMC. Bael pulp powder can be prepared by mixing and whipping CMC followed by mechanical dehydration in cabinet dryer till a moisture content of 6-7 per cent and can remains shelf stable on the basis of nutritional as well as sensory quality upto six months storage. Result of the study depicts during six month storage bael powder prepared by using 0.5 per cent high viscous CMC for foam mat dehydration observed to have minimum increase in moisture and TSS while minimum decrease in acidity, ascorbic acid, vitamin B2 and sensory quality.
