This paper explores the effect of ultrasound (US) assisted plasma-activated water (PAW) or deionized water (DW) pretreatment combined with electrohydrodynamics (EHD) on the drying of yam. The activity characteristics of four pretreatments (plasma activated water combined with ultrasound (PAW + US), plasma activated water (PAW), deionized water combined with ultrasound (DW + US), and deionized water (DW) (control)) and their effects on drying characteristics, rehydration rate, color, reducing sugars, total phenols, infrared spectra, and volatile compositions of yam under EHD drying process were investigated. The results showed that the media pretreaded by ultrasound (US) combined with plasma-activated water (PAW) has lower media of pH (53.

- The study investigated the effects of various electrohydrodynamic drying (EHD) voltages (15, 25, and 35 kV) on the drying characteristics and quality of apricot abalone mushroom compared to hot air drying (HAD) and natural air drying (AD).
- Results showed that while HAD was the fastest drying method, EHD helped preserve the mushroom's color and improved its protein structure and water retention significantly.
- Additionally, the research identified 83 volatile organic compounds in the mushrooms, with alcohols and aldehydes being the most common, particularly at the highest voltage of 35 kV.
