The aim of the Light Solar Dryier is to improve food transformation processes in developing countries through the production of small solar drying devices. Their goal is to reduce food waste and foster local economies through the marketing of correctly preserved products. It may also be used in self-production circuits, urban vegetable gardens and in short production chains. The project is the result of cooperation between two university research groups: the DATA Department has provided the skills required for the construction design of the desiccation equipment, the group is composed of Cecilia Cecchini (scientific director), Gianfranco Caruso, Daniele Durante, Susanna Mirza, Mario Raduazzo. The Department of Food Science University of Foggia has provided the skills regarding food transformation technologies, the group is composed of Carla Severini (scientific director), Antonio Derossi, Teresa De Pilli.

Il Light Solar Dryier ha come obiettivo il miglioramento dei processi di trasformazione degli alimenti nei Paesi in Via di Sviluppo attraverso realizzazione di piccoli impianti per l’essiccazione solare, al fine di ridurre lo spreco dei cibi e favorire le economie locali attraverso la vendita dei prodotti così conservati. Potrà essere usato anche nei circuiti dell’autoproduzione, degli orti urbani, della filiera corta. Il progetto è il risultato della coperazione tra due gruppi di ricerca: quello del Dipartimento DATA che si è occupato del design e dell’ingegnerizzazione composto da Cecilia Cecchini (responsabile scientifico), Gianfranco Caruso, Daniele Durante, Susanna Mirza, Mario Raduazzo. Quello del Dipartimento DiSA Scienza degli Alimenti dell’Università di Foggia che si è occupato degli aspetti legati alla trasformazione degli alimenti, composto da Carla Severini (responsabile scientifico) Antonio Derossi, Teresa De Pilli.

Abstract
The aim of the Light Solar Dryier is to improve food transformation processes in developing countries through the production of small solar drying devices. Their goal is to reduce food waste and foster local economies through the marketing of correctly preserved products. It may also be used in self-production circuits, urban vegetable gardens and in short production chains. The project is the result of cooperation between two university research groups: the DATA Department has provided the skills required for the construction design of the desiccation equipment, the group is composed of Cecilia Cecchini (scientific director), Gianfranco Caruso, Daniele Durante, Susanna Mirza, Mario Raduazzo. The Department of Food Science University of Foggia has provided the skills regarding food transformation technologies, the group is composed of Carla Severini (scientific director), Antonio Derossi, Teresa De Pilli.
