BBKW

Solar drying solution for the agri-food and pharmaceutical industry.

A solar-powered drying technology with IoT-enabled solar walls for optimized drying of herbs, foods, and algae, improving efficiency and reducing CO2 emissions with sustainable solar energy integration.

The Problem

Traditional drying methods are expensive and environmentally harmful

10–15%

of global industrial energy usage globally is consumed by drying processes

Traditional drying methods like fuel or electric dryers incur high energy expenses for farmers, also polluting the environment with greenhouse gasses.

Alternatively sun-drying is unreliable due to weather, risking crop quality and causing delays. All of this combined with improper techniques degrade quality, lowering market value.

THE SOLUTION

Advanced solar drying technology

BBKW upcycles maritime containers into a drying chamber that takes advantage of solar light and energy in combination with a hybrid drying system and an IoT system that dries automatically, allows remote control and produces highly detailed drying reports.

The Impact

Reducing CO2 emissions and saving energy

80%

of energy costs and emissions reduction

BBWK’s solar drying chambers significantly reduce the environmental impact of drying processes. By cutting CO2 emissions and lowering energy consumption, our technology supports sustainability goals while preventing food waste. 

The automated operation ensures consistent quality and efficiency, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and minimizing operational costs.

BBKW provides energy-efficient drying solutions for:

  • Tobacco producers
  • Herb and spice farmers
  • Medical cannabis producers
  • Algae cultivators
  • Agriculture industry
  • Pharmaceutical ingredients manufacturers
     

The benefits of BBKW solar drying technology

With easy installation and minimal setup requirements, customers can quickly benefit from enhanced drying efficiency. The automated system allows for remote control and generates detailed drying reports, providing valuable insights for compliance and optimization.
