Brief Description

Description :

CSIR-NIIST developed and commercialized dehumidification drying for dehydration of food agri products.In the rainy season in India, the moisture content in the air is very high, so it becomes very difficult to dry the crops and vegetables. This novel technique provides solutions for flagging issues in the rainy season.
