5.a+b 5) 1000 kg of potatoes are processed to obtain french fries. Raw potatoes arewashed, peeled, cut into strips, and fried in oil. No potato or water loss occur duringthe washing process. Typically 15% of potatoes are lost in the peeling process. Peeledpotatoes contain 80% water and 20% solids. In general 90% of the solids is starch andrest is the protein. 5% potato loss occurs during the cutting process. Oil used for fryingis six times by weight the amount of potato strips. During the frying process oil uptakeby potato strips occurs. French fries have 33% moisture content, 26% oil and the restare starch and protein. No solids loss from potato strips to oil occurs during frying.a) Make a flow chart of the process, showing all the steps in the process and labelingall of the input and output streamsb) Calculate the yield of french fries from the process (weight of french fries/weightof initial potatoes)c) Calculate the moisture loss from potato strips during fryingd) Calculate the oil uptake by potato strips during frying

Given: (a) The french fries are made from potatoes which can be shown by following flow chart.(b) Given: Total mass of the potatoes→m1=1000 Kg Because 15% potatoes are lost in the peeling process. So the remaining mass of the potatoes→m2=1000×100-15100=850 Kg Because 5% potatoes are lost in cutting process so remaining potatoes will be: →m3=850×100-5100=807.5 Kg Because composition of the water and solids in peeled potatoes and stripped potatoes remains same, so mass of the solids present in stripped potatoes: →ms=m3×20% =807.5×0.20=161.5 Kg=constantNow because french fries contains 33% moisture and 26% oil so the solid percentage in the french fries will be: →100-33-26=41% Hence the total mass of the french fries will be: →mf=ms×10041 =161.5×2.439=393.90 Kg Hence the yield of the french fries from the process will be: →yield=mfm1 =393.901000=0.3939 ..............answer
