(Spondias mombin L.) bagasse drying by an experimental design using a tray dryer. In order to add-value to this product a kinetic study has been carried out. A central composite experimental design has been carried out to evaluate the influence of the operational variables: input air temperature (55; 65 e 75?C); the drying air velocity (3.2; 4.6 e 6.0 m/s) and the fixed bed thickness (0.8; 1.2 e 1.6 cm) and as response variable the the moisture content (dry basis). The results showed that the diffusional Fick model fitted quite well the experimental data. The best condition found has been input air temperature of 75?C, drying air velocity of 6.0 m/s as well as fixed bed thickness of 0.8 cm. The experimental design assay showed that the main effects as well as the second ones were significant at 95% confindance level. The best operational condition according to statistical planning was 75 oC input air temperature, 6.0 m.s-1 drying air velocity and 0.8 cm fixed bed thickness. In this case, the equilibrium moisture content (1.3% dry basis) occured at 220 minutes / O presente trabalho teve como objetivo estudar a cin?tica de secagem do baga?o de caj? (mat?ria prima proveniente da ind?stria de processamento de polpa de frutas), em um secador convectivo de bandejas com leito fixo, em que se determinou o coeficiente de difusividade efetiva atrav?s do modelo difusional de Fick. Foi utilizado um planejamento fatorial composto central no qual foram avaliados os seguintes fatores: temperatura do ar de entrada no secador (55; 65 e 75?C); velocidade do ar de entrada (3,2; 4,6 e 6,0 m/s) e espessura da torta na bandeja (0,8; 1,2 e 1,6 cm). Os resultados mostraram que o modelo difusional de Fick descreve bem o processo de secagem e que a melhor condi??o foi com a temperatura de 75?C, velocidade do ar de secagem de 6,0 m/s e espessura da torta de 0,8 cm onde a difusividade efetiva calculada foi de 6,772 x 10-9 m2/s no tempo de 220 minutos. A an?lise do planejamento mostrou que todos os fatores e suas intera??es foram significativos, com n?vel de confian?a de 95%
