Abstract
The results on microwave drying of a bamboo species, Dendrocalamus stocksii, are presented in this paper. Bamboo specimens were dried in a continuous belt microwave dryer at varying microwave power ranging from 400 to 1600 Watt for different time periods, and moisture loss was determined. Microwave drying rates were compared with kiln drying rates. The result showed that good quality of drying of D. stocksii could be achieved using a conveyor belt microwave dryer. The time of drying is significantly reduced in microwave drying from several days in conventional kiln drying to couple of hours in microwave drying.
