A solid is being dried in the linear drying rate regime from moisture content Xo to XF. The drying rate is zero at X = 0 and the critical moisture content is the same as the initial moisture Xo. The drying time for M = (Ls/ARc) is (where, L = total mass of dry solid, A = total surface area for drying Rc = Constant maximum drying rate per unit area X = moisture content (in mass of water/mass of dry solids)) ?
A M(Xo – XF)
B M(Xo/XF)
C M ln(Xo/XF)
D MXo ln(Xo/XF)
Correct Answer: MXo ln(Xo/XF)
