Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Sammy Sadaka's research focuses on the drying kinetics and quality attributes of rice under various conditions. His work investigates the impact of factors such as grain layer thickness, specific energy input from microwave dryers, and isothermal conditions on the drying process. He has explored the use of 915 MHz microwave frequencies and their effects on rice quality, including its functional and physicochemical properties, as well as aging characteristics.

Sadaka's publications also examine the influence of ambient air dehumidification, air temperature, and drying duration on rough rice quality and pasting properties when using fluidized bed and fixed bed dryers. He has developed mathematical models for dehumidified air drying in fluidized bed systems and has conducted research on the determination of drying kinetics and activation energy for different rice cultivars. His work includes the broad topic of moisture measurement in cereal grains and grain products.

Sadaka has an h-index of 21, with 86 total publications and 1,405 citations. He has collaborated with researchers including Kaushik Luthra, Griffiths G. Atungulu, and Andy Mauromoustakos, all from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
