摘要:
Solar-powered drying is the best alternative solution for all the drawbacks of traditional drying. Dryers not only saves energy but also saves time, occupies less area and improves quality of the product, makes the process more efficient and protects the environment. Solar energy can be used for the entire drying process or for supplementing artificial drying systems, thus reducing the total amount of fuel energy. This invention aims to reduce the dependency on power from the electric utility company, which uses fossil fuels, and to alleviate the problems associated with fish, meat and vegetable processing. Data analysis revealed that the solar-powered dryer help speed up the drying process and produced high quality products that were free from insects, dusts, larva, birds and animals. The PV-based dryer gave the temperature that is higher than that of the ambient temperature which is more effective or favorable for drying of agricultural products.
