“…There was almost no constant-rate drying period though moisture was evaporating from the surface as internal moisture moved towards the surface at the same rate as that of moisture vaporization. This is analogous to results reported by Diamante and Munro (1991) and Mbegbu et al. (2021) .…”

Autumn olive (Elaeagnus umbellata Thunb) is an ornamental plant belonging to Elaeagnacea family and widely found in Southern Europe, Central Asia, and Americas (Ishaq et al., 2015;Wang et al., 2007). It is a vigorous shrub of 3.5 to 5.5 m height and 3.5 to 5.5 m width having tolerance of poor soil, drought and disease due to its ability to fix nitrogen (Ishaq et al., 2015;Wu et al., 2011). Autumn olive produces small deep-red colored sweet-tart and is planted to prevent erosion and provide screening along pathways (Wang et al., 2007). It can be eaten fresh while the dried and powdered fruit or extracts can be used in beverages, salsas, jams, dairy foods, cereals, fruit rolls, preserves, and flavoring (Pei et al., 2015;Wang et al., 2007). The fruit is a rich source of bioactive compounds including carotenoids, phenolic acids, and flavonoids which act independently or in combination as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and cardio-preservative agents

“…Indonesia's products that require drying include seafood, coffee beans, tea, grain, wheat, fruits, foodstuffs, and medicines. Meanwhile, there is palm oil waste in the energy and fuel sector in the form of palm oil shells that can be processed as fuel (75% of palm fruit is in the form of shells), in addition to low to medium quality coal, foodstuff, medicines, mineral seeds, and scent leaves ( Suherman et al, 2020 ) ( Mbegbu et al, 2021 ). Drying using sunlight is considered quite efficient because it does not cost money to carry out the drying process.…”
