Coconut decorticator cum shredder

Abstract

Here is a two-in-one machine that can be used for decorticating coconut husks to produce coconut coir fibers and dusts, and also can be used for shredding biomass for production of compost. Instead of buying two separate machines, the newly developed technology can do both of the two functions. Coconut decorticator and biomass shredder are not accessible to our farmers because of the high investment cost required for the machines. The newly developed technology for decorticating coconut husks into coir fibers and dusts can also be used for shredding biomass for compost production. Farmers don’t need to buy separate machines with this new technology.
