Utilizacao de secador rotativo Pinhalense como nova opcao na secagem de cacau
A rotary drier, type S.T.R. 2,700, originally used for coffee was modified and used for cacao drying. The drier has a static capacity of 2,700 kg of freshly fermented cacao beans and can produce 1,350 kg of dry beans in 38-42 drying hours at a temperature of about 60 grade centigrade. The heat source is the wood that is burned in a furnace and heats the drying air indirectly -eliminating smoke contamination- consuming 0.88 kg of wood per kg of dry beans. Construction, operation and cost details are given and limitation of use relative of the southern Bahia cacao farms are also mentioned.
