Abstract	Drying characteristics of orange peel was investigated by blanching and convective hot air drying of orange peel slices (of 3mm thickness) at the temperature 40ºC, 50ºC and 60ºC. Drying models i.e. Lewis, Henderson and Pabis and Page were fitted to the experimental data on moisture ratio with respect to time. The page model fitted well r^2≥0.976 and MSE≤0.0012 among all the models tested for the experimental data. Effective diffusivity (Deff) at time (t) for orange peel were 0.086×10-8m2/s, 1.834×10-8m2/s and 2.017×10-8m2/s which was blanched at 72ºC:10 min, 82ºC:8min and 92ºC:5 min and dried at 40ºC; 0.0903688×10-8m2/s, 1.077×10-8m2/s and 1.898×10-8m2/s which was blanched at 72ºC:10 min, 82ºC:8min and 92ºC:5 min and dried at 50ºC; 1.168×10-8m2/s, 1.422×10-8m2/s and 1.579×10-8m2/s which was blanched at 72ºC:10 min, 82ºC:8min and 92ºC:5 min and dried at 60ºC. The activation energy (Ea) for moisture diffusion was found to be 2.244×104 kJ/mole, 2.523×104 kJ/mole and 1.262×104 kJ/mole. The quality parameter i.e. T.S.S was in 20 to 60(°B), acidity was in the range of 0.32 to 18.09 %, reducing sugar was in the range of 19.05 to 6.21 % non-reducing sugar was in the range of 2.56 to 10.13%, total sugar was in the range of 9.08 to 25.8%, pH was in the range of 5.4 to 3.6%, ascorbic acid was in the range of 18.2 to 34.76%, yellowness index was in the range of 77.76 to 154.40 and protein was in the range of 8.60 to 11.24% on orange peel powder prepared from blanching at 72ºC: 10 min, 82ºC: 8min and 92ºC: 5 min dried at 40⁰C, 50⁰C and 60⁰C respectively were determined and discussed.
