Abstract

Aswan Governorate is considered the largest governorate of Egypt producing dried dates, and the most famous varieties are Sakkoti, Bartamuda, Gondaila, Malkabi, and Shamia. Immediately after harvest, dates contain a high percentage of moisture, which must be properly disposed of in order to maintain chemical composition and natural properties, and also for long-term storage. There are many drying systems that can be used to dry dates and reduce the moisture content to the safe storage limit. In Aswan, we practice sun drying in the open air for a period of 1 to 2 months, the date fruit is dehydrated, but the quality is very poor compared to industrial drying. This research aims to study the different drying systems that can be used to dry dates and maintain their physical and chemical properties.
