Mugwort harvesting season is approaching. Mugwort leaves are highly medicinal, known for their ability to dispel cold and dampness. After being harvested, they must be processed immediately, otherwise they will rot and their effectiveness will be reduced by half. During the rainy season, only wet mugwort with stems can be sold, fetching only 50 cents per pound. Dried mugwort leaves can fetch 5 or 6 yuan. How can we mitigate the effects of weather on mugwort drying, increase yields and output value, and mitigate the impact of the weather? Advances in technology have enabled the development of modern air-driven drying equipment. These air-driven drying equipment saves energy and energy, ensuring farmers' profits and increasing the added value of the cultivation and processing stages. High-quality dried mugwort leaves increase the purchase price, boosting farmers' profits.
Mugwort Drying Process Steps:
1. Mugwort leaves have a short harvesting period. In spring, this member of the Asteraceae family grows rapidly, so they must be harvested promptly to avoid overgrowth.
2. Freshly harvested mugwort leaves should be promptly placed in a vehicle and placed in a mugwort dryer or drying room. Keep the drying temperature low, below 40°C, for 4 hours, and ensure dehumidification.
3. To evenly dehumidify the mugwort leaves, maintain the temperature at 42°C and bake for 14 hours.
4. Then, increase the temperature to 50°C and dry for 4 hours. At this point, the leaves' moisture content is less than 10%, indicating they are dry.
5. Mugwort leaves are prone to breaking after sun drying. Place them in baskets to recover moisture and soften before packaging and weighing.
Features of Heat Pump Drying Technology:
1. The mugwort dryer has a low heating temperature. Heat pump drying technology can reduce the production process by 38-52°C compared to traditional drying processes.
2. Short drying time. The heat pump drying process typically completes within 22 hours, from preheating to product delivery.
3. The dried mugwort leaves are of excellent quality. Mugwort dried with the heat pump drying process has a beautiful color and stable internal quality.
Advantages of Mugwort Dryers:
1. Flexible and convenient installation and disassembly: Installation and disassembly are not restricted by space, allowing for free selection of interior and exterior locations.
2. Safe and Reliable Operation: The entire system eliminates the flammability, explosion, and poisoning hazards associated with traditional dryers (fuel, gas, or electric). It is a safe, reliable, semi-enclosed system that is trustworthy.
3. Highly Automated and Intelligent: The entire operation utilizes an automatic temperature control system, ensuring 24-hour continuous drying operation.
4. Energy-Saving and Environmentally Friendly: Compared to coal, oil, and gas, this system can save approximately 75% in operating costs. There are no combustion or emissions during operation.
5. Multiple Temperature Control: Adjustable speed and automatic control ensure optimal roasted mugwort color and consistent quality.
6. Versatile Applications: The heat pump mugwort dryer can be used for a wide range of applications, including mugwort, vegetables, and other medicinal herbs.
