Introduction: The Importance of Chrysanthemum Drying
Chrysanthemums, prized for their medicinal and culinary value, require meticulous drying to preserve their color, aroma, shape, and flavor. Fresh chrysanthemums contain uneven moisture distribution: petals (low moisture, delicate) dry quickly, while flower heads (over 80% moisture, dense tissue) demand prolonged dehydration. Traditional sun-drying methods are unreliable, weather-dependent, and often lead to over-dried petals that crumble or lose integrity. Modern solutions must balance intensity—applying stronger heat to flower heads and gentler treatment to petals—to achieve uniform quality.
MeiYa Air Source Heat Pump Dryers revolutionize this process, offering precision, efficiency, and consistency to meet the highest industry standards.
Advantages of MeiYa Heat Pump Dryers
- Energy Efficiency
MeiYa dryers consume 75% less energy than conventional electric heaters by extracting ambient heat. With a COP (Coefficient of Performance) of up to 4.0, 1 kWh of electricity generates 4 kWh of thermal energy, drastically reducing operating costs compared to coal, gas, or oil-based systems. - Precision Temperature Control
Intelligent multi-stage programming ensures optimal heat distribution. Adaptive algorithms prevent over-drying of petals while accelerating moisture removal from flower heads. - Eco-Friendly & Safe
Zero emissions, no combustion risks, and compliance with green manufacturing standards make MeiYa dryers a sustainable choice. - Fully Automated Operation
24/7 continuous drying with minimal human intervention. Self-regulating humidity and temperature systems ensure batch-to-batch consistency. - Versatile Installation
Compact design allows indoor/outdoor setup, ideal for farms or factories.
MeiYa’s Chrysanthemum Drying Process
Stage 1: Blanching & Initial Dehydration
- 65–75°C for 2–3 hours: Rapid heat application eliminates enzymes (“kill-green” stage), locking in color and nutrients.
- 35–40°C for 2–3 hours: Gentle drying begins to stabilize flower structure.
Stage 2: Progressive Drying
- 40–45°C for 8 hours: Gradual temperature rise targets moisture in flower heads without stressing petals.
- 50–55°C for 8 hours: Final phase removes residual moisture, ensuring crisp texture and long shelf life.
Alternative Cycle (for delicate varieties):
- 35–40°C for 3–4 hours → 45–50°C for 15 hours → 55–60°C for 1 hour.
Key Features:
- Continuous airflow prevents stagnation.
- Real-time monitoring and hourly data logging guarantee traceability.
Traditional vs. MeiYa Heat Pump Drying
| Factor | Traditional Sun-Drying | MeiYa Heat Pump Dryer |
|---|---|---|
| Weather Dependency | Unreliable; delays common | Year-round operation |
| Energy Efficiency | N/A (passive process) | 75% savings vs. fossil fuels |
| Quality Control | Inconsistent; petal loss likely | Uniform drying, zero physical damage |
| Labor & Time | High manual oversight | Fully automated, 18–20h cycles |
Conclusion
MeiYa Heat Pump Dryers redefine chrysanthemum processing by merging tradition with innovation. Our technology ensures vibrant color retention, robust aroma, and intact morphology—critical for premium teas and herbal products. By eliminating weather risks and energy waste, MeiYa empowers producers to scale operations sustainably.
