Influence of processing conditions on the physicochemical properties and shelf-life of spray-dried palm sugar (Arenga pinnata) powder

The influence of spray-drying conditions on some physicochemical properties of palm-sugar powder ( Arenga pinnata ) was studied. Twenty tests were carried out according to a central composite design. Independent variables were: inlet temperature (150–190°C), feed flow rate (9–21 g/min), and maltodex...
