Abstract:The increasing emphasis on renewable energy sources has fostered interest in the use of biomass waste as a potential power source. Despite this, few studies have explored its application in powering drying machinery. This study presents the design, fabrication, and performance testing of a biomass-powered dryer, specifically developed for chili drying. The constructed dryer, featuring a drying box, biomass furnace, and flue gas passage, is distinguished by its simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and its capacity t… Show more
