Abstract

An apparatusfor microwave vacuum-drying organic materials such as foods and bioactives has a plurality of microwave generatorsactuated so as to cause interference between their respective microwave streams and evenly distribute the microwave energy across the vacuum chamber. The microwave-transparent windowin the chamber is arranged so the organic material to be dried is moved across it on a conveyor beltand the microwave energy passing into the chamberimmediately encounters the organic materials, thus attenuating the energy and reducing arcing.
