Abstract:
In this era of globalization, food waste issues have become increasingly serious.Humans have
wasted an estimated 1.3 billion tons of food each year. This is because nowadays, many consumers
are busy with daily tasks and do not have the free time to manage food items after a tiring day of
work. Food becomes spoiled due to the action of bacteria & fungi. Freezing dry food can extend
the shelf life of food and avoid more wasted food. The ‘dry freeze machine’ prototype is very
important to make it easier for consumers to dry food. In addition, the prototype ‘dry freeze
machine’ can extend the shelf life of consumer food. The objective of this study is to design and
develop a prototype ‘dry freeze machine’ for use in the field of nutrition, prevent food waste and
prolong the shelf life of food and produce quality food. Research methodology is the triggering of
ideas, scientific research, generation and selection of design concepts, detailed design, prototype
development, selection and preparation of materials, availability and cost, parameters, installation
and finishing, engineering analysis and completion studies, provide references to the design,
specifications and technology used in the production of "Dry Freeze Machine" that has been on
the market. The existing product on the market, ‘DRY FREEZE MACHINE’ is used in large
industries only. Therefore, we want to create a ‘Dry freeze machine’ that is small in size, simple
and easy to operate.
