MAMADry (Multi-Layered Aqua Mate Dryer) Revolutionary Drying System For Fishmeal Pellet Formulation In contemporary fish farming practices, fish farmers now incorporate alternative protein sources in addition to commercial fish pellets. Additional sources, such as chicken intestines, coconut dregs, and other waste materials, supplement the diet of fish, particularly tilapia and catfish. While these alternatives are cost-effective and rich in protein, direct feeding poses challenges, leading to odor pollution and limited storage. To address these limitations, this project introduced an innovative drying system to accommodate a wide range of materials for fish feed formulation. This project involves designing and constructing a vertical drying rack, named Multi-Layered Aqua Mate Dryer (MAMADry), specifically designed for fishmeal pellet formulation. The dryer features a multi-layered design and a continuous airflow system, ensuring efficient and rapid drying while maintaining optimal con
