Optimization Of Process Variable Combinations For The Dehulling Of Roasted African Breadfruit Seeds Using Locally Designed And Fabricated Prototype Dehuller
ABSTRACT
This study aimed at optimizing the process variable
conditions for dehulling of roasted African breadfruit seeds and its effects on
product response parameters. The process variables evaluated were roasting
temperature, roasting time and feed quantity. The response surface methodology
with a rotable central composite design was used to determine factor levels and
combinations that yielded optimum solutions for variables. The dehulling
experiment was performed using a locally designed and fabricated dehuller.
Appropriate laboratory and sensory tests were used to analyze the properties of
dehulled seeds. The dehulled properties were proximate composition,
anti-nutrient, functional properties, amino acids, physi cochem ical properties
of oil, pasting properties of African breadfruit seeds flour, microbial
properties and sensory properties. The experimental data were fitted to second
order polynomial regression models, 3 — D plots and employed in analyzing
process system behaviour. Minitab USA statistical software was used to identify
the optimum values and plots using the desirability functions (DF) format.
