Abstract

In order to find the solution to the current problems of drying process of Moringa Oleifera in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT)-Indonesia such as requiring a large enough space and power, expensive, non-ergonomic and need to turn the leaves over at least once manually using hand during the drying process that can contaminate the process, a new suitable drying method is necessary. Therefore, embodiment design of drying method using VDI 2221 method was studied. The results indicated that a new suitable drying method of moringa oliefera using VDI 2221 method can be made by successfully designing and manufacturing a rotary dryer based on the selection of the best concept from a variety of existing design concepts. In summary from the perspective of engineering design, after testing, the rotary dryer was suitable and can be used to solve current problems of drying process of Moringa Oleifera in East Nusa Tenggara-Indonesia.
