Dried Cocoon Production Cost Breakup Through Cocoon Drying Process Using a Dehydrator

Details: Germany - based plant Q1 2024  | From $ USD

The report provides the detailed cost evaluation of the production of Dried Cocoon through Cocoon Drying process using a dehydrator. In this process, temperature, humidity, wind speed, number of cocoons laid, and drying time are the requirements for cocoon drying. Temperature, humidity, and wind speed particularly have an impact on therate of cocoon drying. In each drying stage, adherence to the law of moisture evaporation is required.

The first stage is preheating, in which the pupae are killed by heating the fresh cocoon, which causes the heat energy to pass through the cocoon layer and into the cocoon hollow. The heat is ensured to be increasing gradually.

After that, the pupa body evaporates most water during the isokinetic drying stage and eventually falls behind the cocoon layer surface’s rate of evaporation.

The moisture content of the cocoon gradually drops, and the evaporation rate is slowed down during the deceleration drying stage. When the interior of the pupa body starts to evaporate, the drying process is ramped up and is moved to the next stage of drying ensuring the temperature conditions with respect to the hot air of the dehydrator. Finally, the process yields dried cocoon.
