Solar drying offers an energy-efficient and sustainable alternative to traditional drying techniques in agriculture. In our research, we explored the integration of Phase Change Materials (PCM) into solar dryer designs...
This method has shown significant improvements in drying time, energy conservation, and product quality, especially in rural settings with limited grid access.
Our findings suggest that PCM-based solar drying is a promising solution for post-harvest management, offering long-term benefits to farmers and food processors.
