Abstract

Solar drying is environment friendly and will enhance conservation of energy. The vegetable drying is a important part in the field of food industry and agricultural area as well using in the other field like cement, wood and timber, textile, dairy and clay brick. This review Objectives- upon new dryer technologies and advantages and disadvantages, the future aspects in solar drying is that the solar drying is one of the oldest drying processes in fruit and vegetable preservation,  in  today scenario dried food play an important role in the household as well as commercial area. As for fruits and vegetables it can be estimated that they establish about 1% of the total drying in the food industry, by large being the grains the most important.

Methodology-The paper is written by conducting a review of information gathered from various secondary sources of information like the internet, research articles, newspaper and thesis Conclusion-There are many phases that is consider in the drying of fruits and vegetables. A system which minimize the exposure to light, oxidation and heat, (i.e. high heat 7 oC and shorter time duration) may help conserve critical bioactive compounds.
