Experimental evaluation of drying kinetics of biomass powered grain dryer

Grain drying is a critical post-harvest process, particularly in developing countries where inadequate drying methods contribute to significant post-harvest losses. Traditional open sun drying is inefficient and weather-dependent, underscoring the need for sustainable and controlled alternatives. This study evaluates the performance of a biomass-powered grain drying system designed to offer smallholder farmers an off-grid, cost-effective solution for reducing moisture content in grains.
