Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the drying kinetics of basil leaves using microwave-assisted drying (MAD) to determine moisture content, moisture ratio, drying rate, and economic analysis at various microwave power levels (136, 264, 440, and 616 W). This study discusses the economic analysis between mic...
