Solar drying facilities combine traditional and industrial methods, meaning low investment costs and high product quality. The ―Hohenheim‖-type solar tunnel dryer combines simple construction, use of renewable energy and easy handling. The model is equipped with a photovoltaic (PV) driving fan with a power requirement of 20-40 W. The thermal energy gained from solar radiation is up to 60 kWh/day (equivalent to 15 kg of firewood). A cooperative development between the Institute for Agricultural Engineering in the Tropics and Subtropics of Hohenheim University and INNOTECH Engineering Ltd., solar tunnel dryers are in commercial operation in more than 60 countries all over the world.
