Optimization of Drying Kinetics and Stone Milling of Chickpea (<i>Cicer arietinum</i>): An Investigation of Moisture Content and Milling Speed Effects on Mill Operative Parameters, Particle Size Distribution, and Flour Composition

Optimization of Drying Kinetics and Stone Milling of Chickpea (<i>Cicer arietinum</i>): An Investigation of Moisture Content and Milling Speed Effects on Mill Operative Parameters, Particle Size Distribution, and Flour Composition

Chickpeas are one of the most widely consumed legumes in the world. Nevertheless, the literature is lacking studies on the effect of drying and milling processes on chickpea flour characteristics, thus motivating this work. The first aim of this work is to improve chickpea drying process through an...
