KARAIKAL: National Institute of Technology- Puducherry (NITPy), Karaikal, has developed a solar-powered dryer that would help prepare dry fish (Karuvaadu) hygienically.
It will be donated to fisherfolk in Kottucherrymedu. “The double-slope solar dryer is capable of producing better quality dried fish compared to open sun drying in terms of drying rate and hygiene,” said NITPy Director Dr K Sankaranarayanasamy.
