Research progress on maize drying technology and equipment
The high-quality drying process is the key operation link of maize after harvested,which is crucial to national food security,quality loss reduction and income increase.The principles and characteristics of diverse maize drying technologies were described in detail such as natural drying,in-store drying,hot air drying and infrared drying,et al.The types,structure and working principle of maize drying equipment were further analyzed,as well as the application of maize ear hoarding,high-moisture kernel in-store drying and high-temperature continuous drying was introduced.Based on the existing drying technology,the non-landing drying process of maize was proposed.The problems of high quality loss,high energy consumption,low efficiency and low intelligence level in the maize drying process were summarized,and the solutions was given.The next research will focus on the development of low-temperature in-store drying of maize,the mobile rapid drying,the high-efficiency continuous drying and the intelligent control.The results provides a reference for the research and development of maize high-quality drying operation and drying equipment.
