Bagasse drying is not to date incorporated into Caribbean Sugar Factory operations, despite the fact that the consequential increase in excess bagasse production could be utilized for a number of purposes. General background to reported work on bagasse driers is reviewed and an assessment made of the relevance of the different available types for the Caribbean situation. As a result of this assessment, two different types of vertically oriented moving packed bed driers are projected as being particularly appropriate. Such driers could be constructed on site by factory personnel.
