摘要

FIELD: agricultural production. SUBSTANCE: method involves drying product in two stages, with partial distilling of moisture from raw material being effectuated at first stage by exposing it to microwave treatment in oven; providing additional drying of partially distilled product by convective drying, in particular, by active ventilation. Apparatus has removable dividing screen facilitating accumulation of moisture discharged at the first drying stage and juice discharge channel. EFFECT: increased efficiency, simplified method and apparatus and enhanced reliability in operation. 4 cl, 1 dwg, 2 tbl
