Drying of Banana-Stepwise Effect in Drying Air Temperature on Drying Kinetics

Abstract

Objective: Three different varieties of banana namely Dwarf Cavendish (Ankleshwar region), Lacatan (Valia region) and Harichal (Bharuch region) were collected from the south Gujarat region, India to check the drying parameters. A pilot scale natural draft tray dryer was used for the drying experimental work.
