Abstract This study was focused on investigating drying traits and quality retention of orange pulp using Refractance Window Drying (RWD) method. The effect of RWD temperature (70, 80 and 90 °C) and orange pulp thickness (2mm and 3mm) on drying time, drying rate, moisture content, ascorbic acid and colour (L*, a*, b* and b*/a*) were studied.
