Because of high porosity and stickiness of mint leaves, they could not be   fluidized well during fluidization. In this study, a vibro-fluidized bed   dryer assisted heat pump system was designed and fabricated to overcome this   problem. The drying experiments were carried out at temperatures of 40, 50   and 60 °C. The quality of the dehydrated samples was assessed based on color   indices, antioxidant activity, and total phenolic content. Drying process   primarily occurred in falling rate period. The effective coefficient of   moisture transfer of the samples was increased with air temperature and   varied from 4.26656×10-11 to 2.95872×10-10 m2 s-1 for heat pump drying (HPD)   method, and 3.71918×10-11 to 1.29196×10-10 m2 s-1 for none-heat pump drying   (NHPD) method. The color indices for temperatures of 40 and 50 °C were very   close to each other, whereas by increasing temperature to 60 °C, a   remarkable loss of green color was observed. The highest phenolic content   was found in methanolic extract for HPD at 60 °C, and NHPD at 50 °C   contained the lowest amount of phenolic compounds. NHPD treatments showed   lower antioxidant activity compared to HPD treatments at the same   temperature due to the longer drying times
