| Details of Innovation | Mr. Abraham had designed the Abraham Low pressure cardamom drying chamber. The speciality of this drying chamber is that cardamom retains its natural green colour. Cardamom is just filled in a container and not spread over a large area. This innovation therefore saves time, space and labour. The main part of the drying chamber is an air blower run by a 1 hp. motor. The unit would be the size of a big refrigerator and its runs on electricity and LPG. It costs Rs. 22,000/unit. |
