The green banana biomass is a component that can be industrially applied to a wide variety of foods
because don’t interfere in the sensory attributes of others ingredients and has functional properties,
especially the presence of resistant starch. This use can be expanded if this product be produced in
powder form. This research presents a feasibility study for production of green banana flour in spray dryer
with rotary atomizer. The variables selected in the experimental procedure were: type of atomizer,
biomass’s concentration, atomizer’s rotation, biomass’s temperature and biomass’s flow rate. It was
defined as response the mass and the moisture content of the product. These variables had two levels of
variation, which corresponded to the completion of 32 tests. In this study it was proved the feasibility to
produce green banana flour in spray drying process.
