Abstract

This journal paper aims to design and fabrication of artificial intelligence assisted solar biomass hybrid dryer for drying cocoa. This work mainly concentrates on offering an authentic and reliable solution to the drying of cocoa beans. Commercially available solid edge software was used for designing the solar biomass hybrid dryer for drying cocoa. Based on the research and calculation, done the fabrication of solar biomass hybrid dryer for drying cocoa which aims to minimize manpower and time consumption in drying cocoa beans.
