- The study concluded that with the use of Active Solar Food Dryer, designed and constructed in this research is expected to dry 0.25kg fresh okro from 52% to 6.3% wet basis in two days under ambient conditions, as compared to open sun drying
- Therefore, making active solar food dryer more efficient, effective and safer as compared to open Sun dryer

- Role: Group leader
- Bachelor of Technology Electrical/Electronic Engineering Title: Design and Analysis of a Solar charge controller and battery
- From the test carried out, the following deductions were made
- Many battery manufacturers will advise sizing the battery for cyclic applications to a maximum depth of discharge of 50%
- That Would mean doubling the size of the battery
- Some batteries have trouble recovering from deep discharges, which mean for the 60 AH/Day load with 5 days of autonomy or 300 AH that they would advise using a 600 AH battery
- This study does not have this limitation
- Thus, the battery is replaceable when it does not provide 80% of its original capacity
- Therefore, recommended that the same 300 AH requirement should be divided by 0.80 to provide a reliable battery system.
