Characteristics of anchovies

Anchovies have body length from 40-70 mm, fresh, light color, whole, natural fishy smell. Fresh fish after catching is washed, treated with fishy smell, boiled with salt before being dried. This process is designed by each establishment owner, along with its own secrets such as marinating and marinating techniques. The moisture content in the raw fish is about 75%.

Process of drying dried anchovies

The drying process of dried anchovies is usually divided into three stages:

Anchovy heating stage

Because anchovies are relatively thin, heating occurs quickly, about 15-25 minutes. During this process, the temperature is steadily raised but not discharged. It is also known as the incubation period. At this stage, the temperature is set to 50 degrees Celsius. Drying time is 15 – 25 minutes. Note that the heat should not be set too high, otherwise the fish will be cooked.

After this period, the entire anchovy put into the dryer is heated to a level just enough for moisture to evaporate off the surface of the fish.

The working principle of SUNSAY refrigeration dryer is as follows:

The refrigeration system is a closed operation cycle, the air is convection and recirculation thanks to the convection fan system, without exhausting the drying air.

The drying air from the drying chamber returns to the dehumidification cooling system. Here, the air is cooled to the dew point, the moisture in the air is separated out in the form of water. Water is collected and discharged through a separate water pipeline.

  • After being dehumidified and dried, the air is re-heated to the set temperature to be dried and returned to the drying chamber.
  • In the drying chamber, with the difference in humidity, the moisture on the product is absorbed by the dry air and dries the product.
  • The air convection system of the SUNSAY refrigeration dryer is designed on a separate principle to ensure that the air is evenly distributed in all trays and on the product surface to help the product dry evenly and uniformly.
  • Refrigeration dryer operates in a closed cycle, so the temperature and humidity outside the environment do not affect the work, and the drying time of fruits, agricultural products, and vegetables.

Refrigeration system is optimally designed to ensure the highest drying efficiency.

The stage of drying dried anchovies

At this stage, people let moisture and hot air escape. Wind speed and temperature were maintained constant during the drying process of dried anchovies. The wind direction is changed periodically according to the preset cycle.

During this stage, the moisture on the surface is heated and evaporated to the environment, hot air convection has the effect of providing additional heat and bringing moisture out.

The moisture layer is deep inside thanks to the diffusion process, will come to the surface and continue to be evaporated until the anchovies are dried.

Some anchovy dryers are not standard, providing too high a temperature makes the skin of the fish harden, the internal moisture drainage process is slow, sometimes it is impossible to get rid of all the moisture.

The standard anchovy dryer is designed according to the drying principle of natural sunlight, so it ensures the best drying speed, product quality, and can meet export standards.

At this stage, the temperature remains the same, but the humidity is set to 15% lower to increase the amount of air that sucks moisture out. make the anchovies dry faster.
