Abstract

In Malaysia most of the herbal researches mainly focus on the chemistry and biological activities ofthe medicinal plants while the study on herbal processing from the engineering aspects is relatively limited In fact the burgeoning knowledge of herbal processing is the important piece of the puzzle before the large scale production could be carried out. This paper discusses on two major unit operations involved in herbal processing namely solid-liquid extraction and spray drying. The factors affecting these two important processes are explained in details. The applications of engineering knowledge in the processes such as modelling and computational simulation are also discussed.
