摘要

The process of obtaining the leaves of Azadirachta indica (neem) inactivated and dried this patent inveu00e7u00e3o consists in the process of obtaining the leaves of Azadirachta indica (neem) inactivated and dried by using the technique of enzyme inactivation, desenvolvild For the development of products using the leaves are dried, crushed or ground,The inactivation process enables the obtaining of the products with excellent sensory characteristics, color and aroma. The process object of this patent provides a product to be obtained with aroma and sabro influences temperature and specific enzymatic inactivation of the leaves.It also provides an economy of thermal power, as in the stage of enzyme inactivation occurs the removal of part of the water of the leaves. The enzyme inactivation above the drying stage, carried out through the use of heated air. Thus, in the drying stage, there is a reduction in the time of resistance in the equipment used.After this step occurs the crushing process, used to generate smaller particles of branches and leaves. Subsequently, occurs the cooling of leaves until ambient temperature and the separation of sticks (branches of leaves). Finally, the material is packaged in order to preserve the quality of physical, chemical and sensory of the product, minimizing the contamination microbrianas.
