The Industrial Microwave Grasshopper Locust Edible Insects Drying and Dehydration Machine

The Industrial Microwave Grasshopper Locust Edible Insects Drying and Dehydration Machine is a new type of drying machine with high efficiency, low energy consumption and environmental protection. The microwave drying equipment has many advantages such as low energy consumption, high product quality, fast speed, convenient operation and maintenance etc. The microwave drying equipment is mainly used for drying materials in the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries such as dried fruit, nuts, vegetables, seeds, spices etc.

Working principle of the Industrial Microwave Grasshopper Locust Edible Insects Drying and Dehydration Machine

The microwave drying machine has a high frequency generator, which is generally used to convert electricity into electromagnetic waves. The electromagnetic waves have a frequency of 2.45GHz and a wavelength of 12cm. With the help of this microwave generator, the moisture in food can be quickly removed by heat conduction.

The microwave energy generated by the Microwave Generator passes through the food material through metal mesh or metal foil, heating up its inside and removing moisture. This process is called microwave heating technology.

Heating mechanism of the Industrial Microwave Grasshopper Locust Edible Insects Drying and Dehydration Machine

The microwave drying and dehydration technology is used to dry and dehydrate edible insects. The main heating mechanism of this process is the conduction of electromagnetic waves in the microwave oven. The microwave energy penetrates into the product through the material surface, and then heats up the water molecules in the body tissue. When the water molecules absorb energy, they begin to vibrate vigorously. Because of their strong interaction with each other, they will have a certain temperature difference at different positions in the body tissue, so that they will generate heat through friction or collision with each other. Meanwhile, some of them will evaporate into steam and leave their liquid state by generating heat. Thus, the temperature rises rapidly in this way until it reaches a certain value (the boiling point).

The Industrial Microwave Grasshopper Locust Edible Insects Drying and Dehydration Machine is equipped with a blast air cooling system to reduce insect temperatures quickly.

The dried grasshopper can be further processed into various food products such as fried grasshopper chips, roasted grasshopper powder and more.

The drying process of grasshopper is mainly divided into two stages: dehydration and sterilization. In the dehydration stage, the moisture content of grasshopper will be reduced to less than 5%, while in sterilization stage, the bacteria, fungi and harmful virus will be killed through high temperature heating treatment.

The drying equipment mainly consists of feeding device, conveying system, microwave generator and microwave box, etc.. According to different production requirements, there are two types of drying equipment: continuous type and batch type.

The insect-conveying equipment adopts a special conveyor belt, which has large conveying capacity, can transport large quantities of insects, and can transport insects in one direction or two directions.

The belt is made of high quality stainless steel. It is durable and easy to maintain.
