About this document
EMC Models and Curves in Food Engineering by namrata sutar is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses equilibrium moisture content (EMC) curves and models. It explains that EMC describes the moisture content of a hygroscopic material at equilibrium with its surrounding environment. An EMC curve shows the hysteresis loop between adsorption and desorption. Several EMC models are presented, including the Kelvin and GAB models, which relate vapor pressure or water activity to moisture content. The document also describes experimentally determining EMC isotherms using saturated salt solut
