Abstract

 

The objective of this research was to evaluate concentration of compounds in the feedstock solution and the conditions of the spray drying process and process conditions for high-pressure homogenization and spray drying on powder pineapple (pulp, core, and peel) quality. The independent variables were considered: maltodextrin (8.0-12.0 %), homogenization pressure of the suspension fed to the dryer (30-50 MPa), rotary atomizer speed (18000-20000 rpm), inlet air temperature (125-155°C), and outlet air temperature (80-90°C). The experimental optimization of multiple responses defined the independent variables as homogenization pressure (44.4 MPa), maltodextrin (10.2 %), inlet air temperature (134.9°C), outlet air temperature (80°C), and rotary atomizer speed (18296 rpm). The dependent variables were: aw (0.215 ± 0.006), solubility (81.9 ± 1.3%), hygroscopicity (12.6 ± 0.9 %), wettability (312.41 ± 21.9 s), angle repose (32.18 ± 2.7°), particle size as D[4,3](22.6 ± 1.5 μm), total polyphenols (301.98 ± 13.8 mg GAE/100gdb), total flavonoids (199.85 ± 11.3 mg QE/100gdb), ABTS (179.14 ± 10.3 mg TE/100gdb), DPPH (308.49 ± 8.1 mg TE/100gdb), and Vitamin C (33.2 ± 0.3 mg AA/100gdb).

Keywords: Ananas comosus; antioxidant activity; fruit powder; physicochemical properties, Response surface methodology.
