Abstract

Dehydration is a food preservation procedure that, by eliminating all free water from it, prevents microbial activity and reduces enzymatic activity, which allows us to give the dehydrated product a long shelf life. This project aims to find the optimal parameters of dehydration in which the data is easy to use for the control of the shelf life of habanero chili, this being a simplified method that allows the producer to adapt techniques to guarantee the commercialization of their product.
