Abstract

This document reports the third trip made to Ghana, that aimed to build capacity on dimensioning, designing and operating pneumatic dryers to process cassava. During this trip, the construction of a small-scale pneumatic dryer was finalized at Hormeku Engineering Works and the equipment was tested plus troubleshoot. It was subsequently installed at Tropical Starch Company Limited, where the workers learned how to operate it. These activities are the fruit of a cooperation between Cassava: Adding Value for Africa Phase II (http://cava2.org) and the CGIAR Research Program on Roots, Tubers and Banana (www.rtb.cgiar.org).
