The use of large-scale microwave processes is increasing. Recent
improvements in the design of high-powered microwave ovens,
reduced equipment manufacturing costs and electrical energy
costs, offer a significant potential for developing newand improved
industrial microwave processes (Vadivambal & Jayas, 2007).
Nowadays industrial microwave dryers could be commercially
viable for drying process in which short drying time and higher
product yield is required. Also, food industries dealing with products
that are susceptible to case hardening may consider microwave
drying to be a good alternative in quality enhancement. Thus,
there is a large market for microwave processed foods and one of
the potentially important growth areas is microwave-baked products,
however the improvement of quality of these microwavebaked
products remains as the major task for researchers
