Research Progress on the Application of Intelligent Infrared Drying Technology to Edible Kelp: Equipment Integration, Heat and Mass Transfer, Multiphysics Simulation, and Quality Control
Kelp is a high-moisture, flexible, sheet-like marine biomass whose drying behavior is strongly affected by the coupled effects of radiative heating, convective vapor removal, internal moisture migration, tissue shrinkage, curling, and material overlap. Traditional sun drying and hot-air drying remain widely used but ar...
