Correct choice is (d) False, True

Explanation: Cabinet tray dyers cannot be used for heat sensitive materials as materials are exposed to the drying medium for several hours. Bin dryer is used for materials which follow the falling rate drying curve as the materials in the bin follow a gradient of moisture content from bottom to top of the bin.
