Solar Conduction Dryer
S4S Technologies
Solution Overview & Benefits
Dehydration of fruits and vegetables is a promising food processing technology that can increase the shelf life of products by nearly a year. It is a value addition process that can save approximately 33% of seasonal agro-product losses. Solar dryers can be used to carry food dehydration without relying on electricity.
Many solar dryers have found limited applications due to high capital requirements. Most of these dryers are based on convection as the main mode of heat transfer, and are therefore complex and inefficient.
A heat transfer technology based on conduction gives the dryers better efficiency, thereby reducing the processing time by 40%.
