Info

The drying chamber is built with hardwood for strength and durability. The front ofthe chamber has two hinged doors to provide access for loading and unloading thedrying trays, on which the products to be dried are spread. Wooden rails areprovided in the cabinet frame, on which the trays slide through. The tray has ahardwood frame, and plastic mosquito mesh is stapled to it. An air outlet vent isprovided at the top front side, for exit of the warm moist air through naturalconvection; the vent is covered with mesh to keep the insects and flies out.Both the 1 m 2 and 2 m 2 model dryers have been tested for fish and banana drying.Temperatures of up to 52°C can be achieved in the top tray of the cabinet. The 1 m 2model can dry about 15-20 kg of fresh fish over a period of two or three days whilethe 2 m 2 model can dry double this quantity. The quality of dried fish was found tobe superior compared to the dried fish generally produced by open sun drying. Testswith drying banana showed that good quality dried banana could be obtained inthree days.The dryers can be built using tools usually available to carpenters. Carpenterscapable of building furniture such as tables, chairs, beds etc., should be able toconstruct the dryer with only limited guidance.60
