Dr. Goggy Davidowitz's research has been highlighted in Yale Climate Connections! He is advancing innovative solar-powered towers to reduce food waste while helping the environment and agriculture. The 25-foot solar drying tower is used to dry large amounts of unwanted fruits and vegetables. Using the heat from the sun, fans circulate the heat, which dries the produce within a few hours.

From the article:

"Davidowitz wants to preserve this produce by drying it. Then it can be used to make packaged food, fertilizer, or animal feed instead of being tossed."

"Davidowitz: “We can dry it down in about five hours. Leafy greens like lettuce, basil, spinach typically take us about an hour, hour and a half.”
