This paper systematically investigates the changes in material properties during electrohydrodynamic (EHD) drying, the discharge characteristics of the EHD system as well as the active ingredients, textural properties (hardness, adhesiveness, etc.) and moisture distribution of yam under EHD, air drying and hot air drying were investigated. The results showed that the active particles and the ionized wind generated during the discharge process of the electrohydrodynamic drying device had a significant effect on the drying. Compared to thermal drying, 21 kV drying resulted in the most complete cellular structure, the best internal bound water content as well as textural properties of yam. It played a positive role in the retention of internal nutrients in yam, and the total phenol and allantoin contents were increased by 25.74% and 81.99%, respectively. These results elucidate the advantages of electrohydrodynamic drying in yam drying and provide a reference for the application of EHD in drying.

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 investigation encompassed an examination of the drying durations, modeling, and quality attributes (color, rehydration capacity, microstructural features, total soluble solid [TSS], and pH values) of strawberry slices subjected to diverse drying methodologies, namely electrohydrodynamic (EHD), EHD-hot air, and hot air processes. Furthermore, 10 distinct thin-layer drying models were applied, and their goodness-of-fit was assessed to identify the most suitable model for the drying process. This analysis encompassed applying two distinct temperatures (50°C and 55°C), and voltage levels (20 and 30 kV).

Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) jet printing of solvent-based inks or melts allows for the producing of polymeric fiber-based two- and three-dimensional structures with sub-micrometer features, with or without conductive nanoparticles or functional materials. While solvent-based inks possess great material versatility, the stability of the EHD jetting process using such inks remains a major challenge that must be overcome before this technology can be deployed beyond research laboratories. Herein, we study the parameters that affect the stability of the EHD jet printing of polyethylene oxide (PEO) patterns using solvent-based inks.
