Abstract
The paper deals with studies made to modify the process
of drying of prawns in rotary drum dryer reported by the authors
earlier. Prawns belonging to any species except M. monoceros
can be satisfactorily dried. With M. monoceros invariably considerable
adherence of shell occurs. Prawns of any size group can be
dried provided in the case of medium and big size prawns they are
beheaded prior to drying. In all size groups, beheading prior to
drying results in better appearance of the end product in addition to
the output of the dryer per charge being increased.
