Abstract

The datasetpresentedinthisarticlerepresentthedryingchar- acteristics ofasemi-automatedgas-fired fish dryer.Acabinetdryer wasconstructedmainlyfrommildsteelsheetmetalandstainless steel, andwasusedfordryingprepared fish samplesof Clarias gariepinus species. Majoroperatingparameterswhichincluded mass of fish, massofLiquefied PetroleumGasused,insidetem- peratureofthedryer,anddryingtimeweremonitored.Also, output parameterssuchasthemoisturecontentandenergyuti- lization amongstotherswereobservedandrecordedatvarying time intervalsandspecified dryingtemperatures.Thedrying temperaturewassustainedviaanincorporatedPIDtemperature controller thatalloweddryingtoproceeduntilarelativelycon- stant massofthedried fish sampleswasattained.Theinformation contained inthisdataarticleincludeaschematicdrawingofdry- ing kineticsanalysisofthesemi-automatedgas-fired fish dryer and apictorialviewofthegas-fired cabinetdryer.Alsoincluded are pictorialrepresentationsofthewashedandneatlyfolded degutted fish samplesanddried fish samples.Dataprovidedinthis article arethoserelatingtoprocessparametersofthesemi-auto- mated fish dryer,dataofoutputparametersofthe fish dryerand comparisons ofmoisturecontentandenergyutilizationatdiffer- ent dryingtemperatureswithtime.
