Tray dryers are the simplest and least-expensive dryer type which operates by passing hot air over the surface of a wet solid that is spread over trays arranged in racks. Drying is a mass transfer process that involves removal of relatively small amounts of water or moisture contents from a material or a process stream. The purpose of the experiment is to conduct a drying process on banana fruits in order to determine its drying rate, moisture content, and the effect of velocity of air on the drying rate of the banana. The banana is sliced thinly and arranged in the tray. The mass of banana is weighted before and after the experiment. During the experiment, the mass of banana is recorded every 10 minutes. The moisture content and the drying rate decreases over time. The drying curve of the banana follows the theoretical drying curve. Drying times comparison with other types of batch dryers show the trays dryer as the least effective. The objectives are successfully obtained therefore the experiment is successfully done.
