This research aimed to optimize the tray dryer temperature and time of white corn flour culture by Response Surface Methodology (RSM). There were two cultures used in this research, namely Amylolytic Culture (AC) and Complete Culture (CC). AC consisted of Penicillium citrinum, Aspergillus niger, Acremonium strictum, and Candida famata, while CC consisted of Penicillium chrysogenum, Penicillium citrinum, Aspergillus niger, Rhizopus stolonifer, Rhizopus oryzae, Fusarium oxysporum, Acremonium strictum, Candida famata, Kodamaea ohmeri and Candida krusei/incospicua. The independent variables in this study were drying temperature and time, where the quality indicators used were total viability of mold and yeast, water content, water activity, and pH. This research used a factor response surface methodology. Data were analyzed by ANOVA with an α level of 95%. The result of this research showed that the optimum drying process for AC starter was 40°C for 10 hrs, with characteristic response viability 8.8×107 CFU/g, water activity 0.43, water content 8.90%, and pH 4.05. CC starter showed an optimum drying process at 49°C for 4.5 hrs, with characteristic response viability 4.9×107 CFU/g, water activity 0.49, water content 7.02%, and pH 3.95. The optimum tray dryer temperatures and times were achieved for AC and CC starters.

The study was conducted to obtain an optimal combination of time and temperature of the drying process of indigenous cocktail yeast mold culture using RSM. The cocktail yeast mold culture was dried using an oven. The cocktail cultures contain Penicillium citrinum, Aspergillus niger, Acremonium strictum, and Candida famata, namely AC (Amylolytic Culture). The Response Surface Methods (RSM) with Design-Expert® 7.00 software, namely Mixture design with D-optimal was performed. The drying time was between 24- 48 hrs and the drying temperature was between 40-50oC. The total of 16 formulas of the combination of drying time and temperature for processing the dried cultures were produced by RSM. The response chosen was total viability of mold and yeast, water content, water activity, and pH. The result of optimization and verification was obtained by the model: pH (AC) = -0.058A - 1.56 x 10-003B + 7.13, where A = drying temperature ( oC), B = drying time (hr). The AC optimization was achieved at a combination of drying temperatures and time of 50oC for 48 hrs. Desirability values were 0.729. The optimum formula for AC has viability of total yeast mold of 7.39 x 106 CFU/g, moisture content of 5.62%, aw 0.303, and pH 4.18.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of drying temperature (50–70°C) and drying time (3–5 h) on the physical properties and quality of squid-laver snack (SLS) using response surface methodology combined with a synthetic evaluation method to optimize the drying process conditions. Moisture content, water activity, color (L⁎, a⁎, b⁎), shear force, and overall acceptability were evaluated as responses. Increased drying times and higher temperatures significantly reduced the moisture content and water activity of SLS from 9.07% to 4.76% and 0.136 to 0.056, respectively (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in the L⁎ and a⁎ values under different drying conditions. The quadratic effect of temperature and time was observed for the b⁎ value and overall acceptability of SLS. For shear force, a quadratic and interaction term for drying temperature and time on shear force was observed. In conclusion, the recommended optimal hot air-drying conditions for SLS are temperature and time of 70°C and 3 h, respectively.

Wingko is semi-wet food from Indonesia made from grated coconut, glutinous rice flour, sugar and other additives that form a distinctive taste and aroma. Utilization of corn in the form of flour aims to reduce the use of glutinous rice flour as the main composition of wingko because in addition to being an economic commodity, corn contains fiber which is useful for digestion. This study aims to determine the effect of the proportion of corn flour, sticky rice flour and tapioca on the physical and chemical properties of wingko. This study uses the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) method with the experimental design of the Central Composite Design (CCD) using 3 factors of 5 levels, namely the proportion of corn flour (43.18; 50; 60; 70; 76.82) (w / w), flour sticky rice (23,18; 30; 40; 50; 56,82) (w / w), tapioca flour (6,59; 10; 15; 20; 23,41) (w / w) are then processed using Design Expert software 7.1.5. The parameters observed were corn flour including water content, ash, starch, amylose, crude fiber and yield, in glutinous rice flour and tapioca including starch and amylose content, while in wingko products included water content, aw, starch, crude fiber and texture. The results showed that corn flour had a moisture content of 7.12%, ash 0.34%, starch 84.72%, amylose 21.22% of the total ingredients, crude fiber 1.15% and yield of 79.8%. Glutinous rice flour has a starch content of 81.98% and amylose 1.02% of the total ingredients while tapioca flour has a starch content of 78.71% and amylose 20.63% of the total ingredients. The optimum conditions of wingko products were obtained in the proportion of corn flour: sticky rice: tapioca 50:38:20 (w / w) with 23.46% moisture content, aw 0.881, starch content 50.87%, crude fiber 2.78% and texture 0.01194 mm / gs had desirability 0.831.

: In this study, the Sany-glass test was used to evaluate the performance of a new surfactant prepared from corn oil as a demulsifier for crude oil emulsions. Central composite design (CCD), based on the response surface methodology (RSM), was used to investigate the effect of four variables, including demulsifier dosage, water content, temperature, and pH, on the efficiency of water removal from the emulsion. As well, analysis of variance was applied to examine the precision of the CCD mathematical model. The results indicate that demulsifier dose and emulsion pH are two significant parameters determining demulsification. The maximum separation efficiency of 96% was attained at an alkaline pH and with 3500 ppm demulsifier. According to the RSM analysis, the optimal values for the input variables are 40% water content, 3500 ppm demulsifier, 60 °C, and pH 8.

To reveal quality change rules and establish the predicting model of konjac vacuum drying, a response surface methodology was adopted to optimize and analyze the vacuum drying process, while an artificial neural network (ANN) was applied to model the drying process and compare with the response surface methodology (RSM) model. The different material thickness (MT) of konjac samples (2, 4 and 6mm) were dehydrated at temperatures (DT) of 50, 60 and 70 °C with vacuum degrees (DV) of 0.04, 0.05 and 0.06 MPa, followed by Box–Behnken design. Dehydrated samples were analyzed for drying time (t), konjac glucomannan content (KGM) and whiteness index (WI). The results showed that the DT and MT should be, respectively, under 60 °C and 4 mm for quality and efficiency purposes. Optimal conditions were found to be: DT of 60.34 °C; DV of 0.06 MPa and MT of 2 mm, and the corresponding responses t, KGM and WI were 5 h, 61.96% and 82, respectively. Moreover, a 3-10-3 ANN model was established to compare with three second order polynomial models established by the RSM, the result showed that the RSM models were superior in predicting capacity (R2 > 0.928; MSE < 1.46; MAE < 1.04; RMSE < 1.21) than the ANN model. The main results may provide some theoretical and technical basis for the konjac vacuum drying and the designing of related equipment.
