Traditional methods of drying fish in open air are still widely practiced in several developing nations in South Asia and other ASEAN countries. Despite their widespread use, these methods frequently produce unhealthy conditions and substandard commodities because of the influence of pollutants, abnormal climatic patterns, and vermin. Notwithstanding their prevalent application, these techniques frequently result in unhygienic circumstances and substandard commodities owing to the influence of impurities, irregular meteorological patterns, and vermin. The existing study introduces a novel environmental approach to fish drying, which involves the utilization of solar energy and Internet of Things (IoT) technology. The system under consideration operates as a solar greenhouse during daylight hours, utilizing solar energy to activate a heatiIoTmechanism for nocturnal use. The IoT controller enhances the drying procedure by controlling the temperature and airflow, leading to a more effective and sanitary drying process. It takes 30 h to dry 500 kg of fish and decrease the moisture content 88% to 10% within 30 h. The initial findings indicate that the newly developed eco-friendly system could enhance the quality of dehydrated fish substantially, while also complying with sustainable energy principles. The current study not only provides a pragmatic resolution for drying fish, but it could also make a significant contribution to the achievement of sustainable development goals by supporting the use of renewable energy in the worldwide food processing industry.
