• W3197430223 abstract "• The drying of crops is an essential process for preserving agricultural products that serve as feed materials for several end application. • The solar drying method is an environmentally friendly method wherein the dryer, a device, uses solar energy to dry the food substances. • Organic paraffin wax as a Phase Change Material (PCM) in a movable solar dryer used as the heat-storing material. • The solar drying method offers the cheapest solution to preserve agricultural products susceptible to the attack of dust, dirt, rain, flies, pests, and microbes. • During peak sunshine hours, the excess heat can be stored and used when there is less sunshine. • The colour, fragrance, and quality of the solar-dried products were better compared to the sun-dried products. Organic paraffin wax, a phase change material (PCM), was used as the heat-storing material in this study. The novelty of this work is the application of a PCM-packed floor in a conventional solar dryer to reduce the absolute drying time of crops. A PCM-packed solar dryer prototype model was constructed with an extendable drying chamber for easy loading, unloading, tilting, and shuffling the food products. The innovative drying setup was constructed to reduce human efforts and improve the drying in the preservation of food products. Four crops (guava, banana, coconut, ladies’ finger) were chosen for the experimental testing of the fabricated model. The samples were tested using the solar dryer with and without the PCM. The outcomes revealed that PCM usage helped retain the heat longer than the test without PCM. The drying time of all four crops was decreased by about 3-4 hours by installing the PCM, thereby reducing the crop drying time per day. The peak temperature attained by the crops in the presence of PCM had considerably improved, i.e., 7.81 % for guava, 4.55 % for banana, 3.125 % for coconut, and 8.33 % for ladies’ finger. The outcomes revealed that the colour, fragrance, and quality of the solar-dried products were better than the sun-dried products." @default.
