Research Progress on the Drying Technologies of Chrysanthemum

The fresh chrysanthemums need to be dried as soon as possible because they are extremely difficult to preserve which has a water content of more than 80%. In recent years, researchers at home and abroad had carried out a lot of researches on the drying technologies of chrysanthemums. The research progress of different drying technologies of chrysanthemum was reviewed in this paper including conventional drying technology, modern drying technology and microwave combined drying technology in order to provide more reference for the selection and application of chrysanthemum drying technology.
