Résumé : |
Preservation of animal skins by conventional salt or brine curing methods leads to environmental pollution. Controlled drying up to acceptable moisture levels could be an effective, cleaner and environmentally friendly alternative for skin preservation. The selection of optimum storage and drying conditions requires the knowledge of moisture desorption isotherms. Hence this work focuses on the experimental determination of desorption isotherms for south Indian sheep and goat skins at three different temperatures 30, 40 and 45°C. The goodness of fit of four sorption models to experimental results was determined. Of the models tested, the modified Oswin gave the best fit followed by modified Halsey. Modified Henderson and modified Chung Pfost models showed relatively larger deviations from the experimental values. The deviation was larger in sheep skins compared to goat skins. The net isosteric heat of sorption was determined for both sheep and goat skins using the Clausius - Clapeyron equation and is expressed mathematically as an empirical polynomial function of equilibrium moisture content. The net isosteric heat of sorption for sheep skin was higher than the goat skin. |
