Ginger Processing & Drying Solution for Industrial Production

Introduction

Fresh ginger is widely used in food processing, as a seasoning, in health products, and in pharmaceutical applications. However, industrial ginger drying is a technically demanding process. Ginger contains a high moisture content, a strong fiber structure, and heat-sensitive active compounds, such as gingerol. Improper drying often results in darkened color, uneven moisture distribution, loss of aroma, and reduced market value.

Our ginger processing and drying solution is designed to provide a stable, energy-efficient,t and fully integrated system from raw material handling to finished ginger products. By combining optimized pre-treatment equipment with low-temperature drying technology, this solution ensures consistent quality, high yield,d and reliable industrial operation.

Key Challenges in Industrial Ginger Drying

Industrial producers often face the following problems during ginger drying:

  • Uneven drying caused by inconsistent slicing thickness

  • Surface hardening and internal moisture retention

  • Color browning due to excessive temperature

  • Loss of active ingredients and aroma

  • High energy consumption and unstable operation

A successful ginger drying solution must address all these issues through proper process design, equipment selection, and parameter control.

Complete Ginger Processing Line

Our ginger drying solution is based on a standardized and flexible processing flow that can be customized according to capacity and final product requirements.

Processing Steps:

  1. Bubble Washing & Cleaning
    Removes soil, sand, and impurities while protectingthe ginger surface integrity.

  2. Peeling (Optional)
    Depending on product specifications, ginger can be peeled mechanically or manually.

  3. Slicing or Dicing
    Uniform thickness slicing ensures consistent drying and prevents over-drying or under-drying.

  4. Low-Temperature Drying
    Controlled drying process using heat pump dryers or mesh belt dryers.

  5. Grinding / Powder Processing (Optional)
    Dried ginger slices are processed into powder or granules.

  6. Packaging
    Final products are packed according to food-grade or pharmaceutical standards.

Recommended Drying Technologies for Ginger

 

Heat Pump Dryer for Ginger Drying

Heat pump drying is highly recommended for ginger due to its excellent temperature control and energy efficiency.

Advantages:

  • Drying temperature range: 40–60°C

  • Preserves natural color and aroma

  • Maintains active compounds

  • Energy saving up to 40% compared to hot air drying

  • Suitable for food-grade and medicinal ginger products

Heat pump dryers are ideal for sliced ginger, ginger flakes, and premium ginger powder production.

Mesh Belt Dryer for Large-Scale Production

For high-capacity and continuous operation, mesh belt dryers provide stable and efficient drying.

Advantages:

  • Continuous drying process

  • Suitable for sliced or diced ginger

  • High output and industrial scalability

  • Compatible with automated production lines

This option is recommended for large processing plants focused on volume production.

Typical Production Capacity Options

Capacity Range Application Scenario
100–300 kg/h Small processing workshops
500–1000 kg/h Medium-scale food factories
2–5 T/h Large industrial processing plants

All systems can be customized based on raw material condition, moisture content, and final product requirements.
