The technology consists of a 15 to 26 metres long plastic tube where the rice is laid out. The transparent upper side of the tube allows the sun’s rays to penetrate, building up heat inside and drying the product. The heat is distributed uniformly by solar-powered fans that make the air flow, removing the moisture. For optimized drying, the rice is turned regularly using a rolling bar. Being currently optimized energetically and trialled in different countries, the bubble dryer can cost between € 1,200 and € 3,400.&lt;ref&gt;http://www.knowledgebank.irri.org/step-by-step-production/postharvest/drying/mechanical-drying-systems/the-solar-bubble-dryer&lt;/ref&gt; '''&lt;span class=&quot;link3&quot;&gt;[[:File:Techsheet A3 solar rice dryer V3.0.pdf|Read more ...]]&lt;/span&gt;'''</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>&lt;span class=&quot;link3&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;link3&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;link3&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;link3&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;link3&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;link3&quot;&gt;One innovation that allows safe and efficient drying conditions using solar energy is the solar bubble dryer.

The electricity is distributed to rural households and micro-enterprises, allowing a better quality and providing a low-cost option for meeting their energy needs. It powers irrigation pumps, agro-processing mills, and drying and heating processes. As both resources are abundant in rural communities, the processing operations will be able to continue during night time, as the biomass plant will provide power when the solar PV system is not operating. <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">'''</ins>[https://poweringag.org/innovators/biomass-solar-pv-hybrid-minigrids-grid-farming-communities Read more…]<ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">'''</ins>&lt;br/&gt;</div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>&#160;</div></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>= &lt;span style=&quot;color:#00A3AD&quot;&gt;Case Studies&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br/&gt; =</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>= &lt;span style=&quot;color:#00A3AD&quot;&gt;Case Studies&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br/&gt; =</div></td></tr> </table> Ranisha
