Figures from earlier tests with other samples: they vary with moisture, the required particle size and the product. Actual throughput is confirmed in the grinding test.

### Technical notes

- With very small screen openings the product does not rise to the cyclone and throughput drops; larger openings increase throughput.

For a long time, the **green banana** underwent numerous tests in the chemistry and biochemistry laboratory of the Department of Food and Experimental Nutrition of the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences of the University of São Paulo (USP), so that researchers could find a way to develop a product that was practical to use. The result was dehydrated **green banana flour.Moinhos Vieira** has several customers who use its **mills for grinding dehydrated green bananas.**.
