Drying method that is applied in flour manufacturing industry, one of which is pneumatic drying. Variable types of both the properties of the dried material and the conditions of the drying process greatly affect the quality of the results of drying. Water content is an important variable in determining the quality of flour. The purpose of this study was to find the effect of drying air temperature on the moisture content of cassava flour under the conditions of the pneumatic drying process. Drying of cassava flour at desiccant air temperatures of 145oC and 160oC with 2 drying cycles produced a moisture content of 11.3 and 8.7% wb and had fulfilled SNI for flour water content, which was a maximum of 12% wb. The higher the temperature of the drying air, the lower the moisture content.

The results showed that the drying temperature using a Hohenheim dryer is much higher around 10-20 ° C than the drying temperature by drying. The process of drying pumpkin coffee until it can be ground needs 12 hours, which is 8 hours on the first day and 4 hours on the second day. While the process of drying stage 2 takes 16 hours to produce rice coffee with a moisture content of 9.32%. The quality of rice coffee produced is good with water content that meets SNI standards, does not smell bad, and is not contaminated. The yield of pumpkin coffee-based rice coffee is 35%.

Lemuru production in Sumbawa has increased and is one of the processed productsthe famous one is bage fish. This bage fish is processed by a process of salting andpickling, then drying and frying. Request from the Sumbawa peopleThere are already many who want to bring this typical bage fish souvenir from the region. Bytherefore in this study a controlled drying process was carried out usingoven, and is expected to be a solution to improve the quality of bage fishphysicochemical and microbiological. The results showed that fresh lemuru hadthe average moisture content was 86%, protein content was 19.8%, fat content was 6.1%. Water contentThe highest bage fish was found in treatment with a temperature of 50 ° C for 2 hours (56.33%)while the lowest water content is found in 4 hours drying with a temperature of 60 ° C(28.41%).

The main objective of this study is to analyze and compare the drying behavior of seawage experimentally in solar dryer, sun dryer and oven dryer. Seaweeds with moisture content of 70% have been cleansed of impurities attached and washed with fresh water. The solar dryer tool is made of glass and iron shaped dryer and box, where the solar collector is made of black painted iron plate. The results showed that the air temperature in solar dyrer was higher than the ambient. The air humidity relative in the solar dryer is lower than the ambient. Drying seaweed by solar dryer method can dry the material up to 12.2% water content within 16 hours, and faster than sun dryer method. Energy utilization per kg of material for solar dryer, sun dryer and oven dryer is 1493 kJ / kg, 1338 kJ / kg, and 1620 kJ / kg, respectively.

This study analyzed the drying process and the seed quality of adzuki beans (Vigna angularis). Grains of adzuki beans, with moisture content of 1.14 (decimal dry basis) at harvest and dried until the moisture content of 0.11 (decimal dry basis.) were used. Drying was done in an experimental drier maintened at controlled temperatures of 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70 ºC and relative humidity of 52.0, 28.0, 19.1, 13.1, and 6.8%, respectively. Physiological and technological seed quality was evaluated using the germination test, Index of Germination Velocity (IGV), electrical conductivity, and water absorption, respectively. Under the conditions tested in the present study, it can be concluded that drying time for adzuki beans decreases with the higher air temperatures of 60 and 70 ºC, and it affected the physiological and technological seed quality. Thus, to avoid compromising adzuki seeds quality, it is recommended to promote its drying up to 50 ºC.

Abstract: The air temperature used in the drying process can determine the initial physiological quality and storage potential of a seed lot, which is the object of this study. Safflower seeds, harvested at a moisture content of 25.8%, were subjected to drying in an experimental dryer at air temperatures of 40, 50, 60 and 70 °C until reaching a moisture content of 6.6 ± 0.6%. Immediately upon drying and every 60 days after that, up to 240 days of storage under uncontrolled conditions, seed samples were collected to determine physiological quality. Increasing drying air temperature resulted in higher water removal rates, promoting immediate and latent damage to seed physiological quality, evidenced by the reduction in the percentage and speed of root protrusion, first count, and germination, mainly at temperatures of 60 and 70 °C. For the maintenance of safflower seed germination and vigor up to 240 days of storage, it is recommended that drying air temperature does not exceed 40 °C, especially when seeds present moisture contents close to or higher than 25.8% at the drying moment.
