Microwave technology is widely used for drying application, which either insects, chemical powder or liquid rubber, food material. And, microwave drying machine recently applies to dehydrate the edible insect like cricket and animal feeding black solider fly larva and mealworms.

With the consequences of population growth, an increased food/feed output from available agro-ecosystems resulting in an even greater pressure on the environment. As a high protein product, edible insects would play a dramatical role in the future food. Microwave drying machine enable to quickly dry insects to guarantee the longer shelf life and easy transportation. Time and energy consumption are reduced by microwave dryer compare to traditional hot air machine. And the microwave drying treatment minimize nutrition content of edible insects as the short processing time and lower drying temperature. For edible insects, drying machine is required be used to control the microbiological risks which should meet with edible standard. Microwave drying machine utilize thermal and no-thermal sterilization function to control bacteria. Therefore, edible insects could be directly consumed after microwave drying machine.

Animal feeding insects BSLF and mealworms, microwave can quickly dry the insects then pack them in the bag to further sell. The advantage of microwave drying is to maintain the insects original color and appearance. However, Hot air dryer will change the insects to dark color and alter the insects original shape. The modified color and shape of insects hardly attract the animal attention. Microwave drying machine also save the pre-heating stage, so operator can randomly start and turn off the machine. The microwave batch oven and tunnel conveyor could meet with different capacity demands, which either small insects farm or large bugs company.
