Jute is one of the most important crops in Bangladesh and its
quality, to a great extent, depends on the system used for drying
the fibre. In this study, a solar drying system for jute fibre is
developed in order to improve the quality of raw-jute and jute
products. A thorough review of existing literature is presented in
order to exhibit the current state-of-art of fibre drying. The
solar energy availability is reviewed also in the context of
Bangladesh. The theoretical and experimental investigations of
different solar air collectors used as solar air heaters are
carried out. The thermo-physical properties of jute fibre are
defined and air heater ducts, drying chamber and fan and ducting
systems are designed which cover the technical aspects of the
study. A cost benefit analysis of the developed system is carried
out to examine its economic feasibility from where it is found to
be a feasible proposition.Necessary discussion and conclusions are
laid down. Finally recommendations are put forward for future and
further work.
