COMPARISON OF THE THREE METHODS OF DRYING In discussing the comparative merits of sun-drying, evaporation, and dehydration, it is convenient to consider apples separately from apricots, peaches, and pears because apples are never sun dried on a commercial scale and they are extensively dried by the process gen- erally referred to as evaporation.
