Microwave vacuum drying equipment represents a cutting-edge application of microwave technology combined with vacuum science. This innovative system integrates the benefits of both microwave and vacuum drying, addressing the limitations of traditional vacuum drying methods such as long processing times and low efficiency. During the drying process, it offers high yield, superior product quality, and reduced operational costs. As a high-tech solution, this equipment combines multiple disciplines including electronics, vacuum science, mechanical engineering, thermodynamics, and automated control. It is based on advanced physical principles, such as moisture migration under vacuum conditions, heat and mass transfer within materials, and the development of new technologies for efficient drying. In industrial applications, many products cannot be dried at high temperatures, such as certain medicines, chemicals, nutritional foods, and premium Chinese herbal remedies like ginseng and deer antler. To maintain product integrity, drying must occur below 100°C or at room temperature. Under vacuum conditions, the boiling point of water decreases significantly, allowing moisture to evaporate without raising the material's temperature. However, conventional vacuum drying relies heavily on conduction, which is slow and inefficient, leading to uneven heating and poor temperature control. In contrast, microwave heating is a direct form of energy transfer through radiation, heating the material uniformly from the inside out without the need for convection or conduction. This results in faster drying, higher efficiency, and better product quality. Developed countries such as the United States, France, and Japan began exploring industrial microwave vacuum drying systems in the 1980s, achieving successful real-world applications. For example, the University of California used microwave vacuum drying to process seedless raisins, reducing drying time from 24 hours at 65°C using hot air to just 5 hours at 50°C, significantly improving product quality. The French company International Microwave developed a 2450MHz, 48KW microwave vacuum dryer for producing instant orange powder, preserving the original color, aroma, and taste while maintaining higher vitamin content than spray drying. In China, research into microwave vacuum drying began in the late 1980s, and by the early 2000s, key challenges such as arc discharge in low-pressure microwave fields, temperature inconsistencies in material layers, and non-contact temperature measurement were successfully resolved, enabling large-scale industrial use. The advantages of microwave vacuum drying include: 1. **High Efficiency**: Unlike traditional vacuum drying, which relies on slow conduction, microwave vacuum drying uses radiation to heat the entire material uniformly, greatly shortening drying time and reducing energy consumption. It can improve work efficiency by more than four times compared to conventional methods. 2. **Even Heating**: Since microwaves penetrate and heat the material simultaneously, internal and external temperature differences are minimized, ensuring consistent quality throughout the drying process. 3. **Easy Control**: The system allows for rapid power adjustments and precise automation, making it ideal for continuous production and flexible process optimization. 4. **Compact Design**: The equipment is small and easy to install and maintain, making it suitable for various industrial settings. 5. **Superior Product Quality**: Compared to traditional methods, microwave vacuum drying preserves the structure, flavor, and nutrients of the product, resulting in higher-quality outputs. 6. **Disinfection and Sterilization**: The microwave process also has antimicrobial effects, enhancing product safety and extending shelf life. With its energy savings, improved product quality, and cost-effectiveness, microwave vacuum drying technology offers significant economic and social benefits. As shown in Table 1, when comparing microwave vacuum drying with other drying methods in dehydrated vegetable processing, it stands out in terms of performance, cost, and quality. With our company’s newly developed industrial microwave vacuum drying equipment, ranging from 2KW to 100KW, we are providing modern, high-efficiency drying solutions for various sectors across China's national economy.
