Abstract

• Fundamental research on drying behaviour
• Defining optimal storage condition (Sorption Isotherm)
• Drying behaviour during convective drying
• Drying behaviour in conventional and solar dryers in Albania
Six flowering stages were tested at Universität Hohenheim drying facility and six drying methods were tested at Agro-MAP drying center
Optimal temperatureofdrying and storage and optimal drying methods were determined for achieving highest oligomeric procyanidins(OPC) content and flavonoids content
