Review of Related Literature

The document reviews literature related to solar drying of agricultural products. Several studies have found that solar drying is effective for grapes but commercial adoption has been limited due to high initial costs and low dryer capacities. More research is needed to improve efficiency and usability. Solar dryers provide benefits over open-air drying such as preserving quality, reducing drying time, and preventing contamination from weather and pests. The development of efficient and affordable solar drying technology could improve farmers' livelihoods by reducing spoilage and increasing income. The reconstructed mixed-mode solar cabinet dryer discussed aims to benefit marginalized farmers who lack facilities to preserve agricultural products.

RELATED LITERATURE

Specialized and efficient outcomes have demonstrated that sun oriented drying of

grapes is very possible. Commercialization of sunlight based drying of grapes has not acquired

force true to form, might be because of high starting venture and low limit of the dryers. Indeed,

the rancher's acknowledgment of sun based dryers created isn't empowering. (K. Scrant, 2009)

Thorough innovative work must be completed to make sunlight based drying of grapes

efficient and easy to use. There has been a surprising accomplishment in sun oriented drying of

grapes because of supported innovative work related with the reception of cutting edge

innovations. An audit of different sun oriented drying models for grapes is in this manner

required. (K.S.Jairaj, 2009)

Cultivating overwhelmingly happens in country regions where customary energy

innovations may either be costly or at times in fact infeasible to be gotten. This requires

arrangements of sustainable power advances to distant regions for manageable force age,

cooling and drying of farming item. (L.Jiang 2018)

Inexhaustible frameworks for example sunlight based dryers, sun oriented crossover

dryers, consolidated force and drying framework take driving jobs in manageable drying of

ranch produce. Various exploration contemplates have been completed in the previous multi

decade, which principally focus on demonstrating, recreation and test of various manageable

drying strategies. (R.Lamidi and A.P.Roskilly, 2019)


Present a cutting edge survey on the commitments of joined force and drying, utilization

of stage change materials and mixture drying frameworks concerning farming items. In view of

this thorough outline, it is shown that arrangement of biomass controlled consolidated warmth

and force frameworks may be a decent answer for post-collect squanders since both power and

warmth for drying of rural items can be all the while acquired. (R.Lamidi and A.P.Roskilly, 2019)

It is found by scientists that safeguarding of food by drying lessens wastage as well as

give better re-visitation of ranchers. In open sun drying the significant misfortunes are

attributable to tidy, birds, questionable climate, rodents, creepy crawlies, fungies, robbery are

hard to keep away from. The immediate UV beams from sun additionally stained the trim and

lessen the market worth of yield which is dry in open sun and direct sun oriented dryers.

Shrivatava et al. (2014)

Exhibitions of various dryers as far as drying rate, warm effectiveness are additionally

tended to which shows if ranchers embrace such innovations they improve return and save time

in enthusiasm for the hard exertion they have dedicated in crop development. the

advancements in aberrant sun based energy dryers have been canvassed in most recent thirty

years in different piece of the world. S. Okaiyeto et al. (2021)

Drying in sun powered drier has many benefits, for example, quality dried item, drying

time decrease, keeps up with drying cleanliness, security from flighty climate, bugs and

nuisances and wild creatures, better market rates and diminishes fossil fuel byproducts. In

aberrant sunlight based dryer, the temperature, dampness and drying rate can be changed

somewhat. (R. Sharma, 2018)


Then again, sun powered energy is for nothing, earth clean, thus, recognized as quite

possibly the most encouraging decisions among sustainable power recourses (Prakash and

Kumar, 2013;Kumar et al., 2014;Shrivastava et al., 2014 and. Smallholders of regular elastic in

southern Thailand dry elastic sheet either under the open sun drying or inside conceal during

blustery season because of deficiency of the smokehouse. S. Sonthikunet al. (2016)

Solar is key sustainable wellsprings of warmth energy which is utilized for agrarian items

drying. Appropriate usage of sun powered fuel source in drying diminishes drying time and

upgrades the item quality (shading and surface) in contrast with open sun drying. Different kinds

of sun powered half breed dryers have been planned and created for organic products,

vegetables and other rural items drying. (Tekasakul, 2013)

As such the advancement of proficient and economical gear for the drying of farming

and marine items utilizing sun based force developed in this manner working on the nature of

the items just as working on the personal satisfaction. The utilization of sun powered dryers in

the drying of rural items can altogether diminish or dispense with item wastage, food

contamination and at the at some point upgrade usefulness of the ranchers towards better

income determined. A sun based yield drying framework doesn't exclusively rely upon sun

oriented energy to work; it joins fuel igniting with the energy of the sun, consequently decreasing

petroleum product utilization. (K. M. Arunraja, 2018)

Dryers have been created and used to dry farming items to further develop time span of

usability (Espier and Muhlbauer, 1996). A large portion of these either utilize a costly wellspring

of energy like power (ElShiatryet al., 1991) or a blend of sun oriented energy and some other

type of energy (Sesay and Stunning, 1996). Most undertakings of these nature have not been

embraced by the little ranchers, either in light of the fact that the last plan and information

assortment techniques are as often as possible unseemly or the expense has stayed distant
and the ensuing exchange of innovation from scientist to the end client has been everything

except viable (Berinyuy,2004).

Drying is one of the most efficient methods used to preserve food products for longer periods. A solar

dryer is an enclosed unit, to keep the food safe from damage, birds, insects, and unexpected rainfall.

The food is dried using solar thermal energy in a cleaner and healthier way. The dryer that we have

reconstructed is a mixed mode solar cabinet dryer where the combined action of solar radiation incident

on the material to be dried and the air preheated in the solar collector provide the heat required for the

drying operations. Here the atmospheric air enters through inlet portion of the solar collector at the

bottom end and the moisten air get exhaust through the outlet portion. The objective of the dryer is

mainly for the welfare of the marginalized and poor farmers those who can’t afford hi-tech facilities and

equipments to preserve their agricultural products and to eliminate the unwanted and unpredictable

food spoilage due to lack of facilities in the region. (Baloraj et al., 2013)
