[permaculture-oceania] Drying rooms

[Mitra Ardron]

Hi

Does anyone know about solar drying technologies for bulk products.

I remember reading somewhere - I believe in a permaculture magazine - 
about someone who had built solar drying rooms, I think they used a 
gas or other heat source backup for when the temperature dropped 
below the critical point,  I think the application was for timber 
drying.

Our own application is for drying a hemp plastic that we will be 
making in Mullumbimby (northern NSW). www.zelfoaustralia.com, we'd 
love an alternative to using electricity (which of course would be 
green-power if we have to go that route).
