The cashew pulp is high nutritive value and per unit is one of most fruits rich in vitamin C in the world, and perhaps fruit and cheaply between all other cultivated in Brazil. having as goal the use of surplus materials press regional and knowledge appropriate to the applicability of conventional drying system as route food conservation, this work sought the kinetic study of drying cashew peduncle in conventional dryer trays with control of temperature and velocity of air drying, for obtaining the peduncle of cashew dehydrated, thereby promoting the development of technology to aggregate value to cashew, minimizing your losses in the field and consequently increasing their added value and the family income of the producersAttribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/br/Secagem convencionalPedúnculo de cajuDrying conventionalCashew pulparticle
