SUMMARY OF THE ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

For the economic analysis, the researchers considered 3 categories such as estimated
price per unit, maintenance cost per year, quantity needed by the plant and number of trays that
can handle per unit to analyze which among the alternatives is the most efficient one
economically. Among the alternatives, the alternative 4, solar fish dryer, has the highest over-all
cost even though it has the lowest price per unit which is P280,000 due to the number of
quantities it requires. On the other hand, Tunnel Dryer has the lowest over all cost which is P
680,000 that can handle 80 trays per batch. Alternatives 3 and 2 placed 2nd and 3rd respectively
for the lowest over-all cost. As a conclusion Tunnel Dryer is the most efficient among the
alternatives in terms of economic reasons.

SUMMARY OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS

For the environmental analysis, the researchers considered three categories such as noise
production, energy consumption and land use to analyze which among the alternatives is the best
to choose in terms of environmental effects. Based on the data in the table, Among the
alternatives, the alternative 4 has the lowest noise production and energy consumption but it has
the greatest land use. The other three alternatives gave the same level of noise production but
alternative 3 has the highest energy consumption.

SUMMARY OF THE HEALTH AND SAFETY ANALYSIS

For the analysis of health and safety, the researchers have considered two categories such
as radiation emitted by the unit/s and working temperature to figure out which among the
alternatives is suited in terms of safety and health of the workers. Based on the data, among the
alternatives, Alternative 4 has the lowest radiation emitted and working temperature. On the
other hand, Alternative 2 has the highest among the alternatives in two categories.
