This paper presents the performance evaluation of a passive solar dryer. The Dryer was designed and constructed at Mechanical Engineering Department Caritas University, Amorji-Nike, Enugu, Nigeria. using locally sourced materials from Ogbete main market, Enugu. Experimentation carried out samples 20mm 40mm sliced cassava chips weighing 46g 80g respectively in month November, 2020.Temperature re...

Spent grains from microbreweries are mostly formed by malting barley (or malt) and suitable for a further valorization process. Transforming spent waste to raw materials, instance, in the production of nontraditional flour, requires previous drying A natural convection solar dryer (NCSD) was evaluated as an alternative conventional electric convective (CECD) dehydration process local microbrewe...
