dc.description.abstractSand adhering to spratts (a major item of dry fish exports from India) dried by the conventional sun-drying technique, affects adversely the export quality of the fish. A simple equipment designed and fabricated for the removal of sand from the fish is described. The equipment consists of a wire mesh drum provided with three horizontal coir brushes supported on a central shaft. The drum and the brushes rotate in opposite directions, providing the desired abrasive action for cleaning the fish. The operational conditions for attaining maximum cleaning efficiency (removal of 70-80% of the sand originally present) have been worked out.en_US
