Development And Evaluation Of Charcoal Oven Dryer With Manual Blower
ABSTRACT
A charcoal dryer was developed
with a manual blower and used to dry fish and okra on two trays. 570g of sliced
and whole okra and 1.610kg of sliced and whole fish. The sliced was reduced to
3cm thickness and placed at different trays and subjected to drying for 5
hours, moisture loss was determine every 30 munities of drying, temperature and
relative humidity of the chamber was monitored while the blower was stroked 10
times every ten munities. The dryer achieved a drying temperature of 67-69°c
while the exit temperature was 44-48°c. the total moisture loss was, between
170g-175g for sliced materials while 134-140g was for whole materials for the
same 5 hours of drying. Drying efficiency was 59%, while relative humidity was
between 48-67% and varies between points. The dryer was effective at 59%.
