Aufdeckung des Potenzials von vernachlässigten diversen Agrarprodukten um das Einkommen der armen Bevölkerung zu verbessern: Das Beispiel des Paprikas in seinem Ursprungsland

This project aims at optimizing the Solar Bubble Dryer in a continued collaboration between IRRI and University of Hohenheim in order to improve the drying process and to significantly reduce costs of the technology. Hohenheim researchers will employ advanced modeling techniques via Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to simulate improvement scenarios and propose optimization strategies for the SBD. Simulations will be validated on optimized prototypes. At the same time IRRI will continue to verify the technology and initiate out-scaling to end users in different countries through IRRI’s postharvest networks.
